I’m RG etc
In this issue, DC sends us streaming, while Marvel leaves us creaming. THEN we remind you of that time we had a dance-off to save the universe in What We’ve Been Reading. ALSO It’s John Dee’s Geek Related Challenge…or something.
PLUS: our Kick-Ass Pick of the Week™: AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR, the biggest Marvel Cinematic Universe Movie Ever. Or until 2019. This is BEHIND THE PANELS.
Your Hosts: Richard Gray, David McVay & Dave Longo

What We’ve Been Reading
What haven’t we been reading, really?
News Headlines
- DC Comics has launched a new streaming service called DC Universe. It will launch with a Swamp Thing series, Titans, Young Justice: Outsiders, and Harley Quinn. Oh good, another subscription service.
- Celine Dion has recorded a music video for Deadpool 2. She’s a Canadian treasure.
- Brian Michael Bendis has taken over Superman. We look forward to Clark Kent’s new catchphrase “BLAM! I lasered you!”
- Batman: The Killing Joke, Batman: The Court of Owls, and Harley Quinn: Mad Love will all be getting novelized adaptations this year. Alan Moore will be rolling in his grave. Wait, what year is this?
- Marvel Comics…honestly, we have no idea what’s going on there at the moment.
- Aussie manufacturer Geeky Sex Toys has launched a like called Indulgers: Pleasure War. The line includes the Incredible Dong, Captain Anal and Arse Reactor butt plugs; Agent Getsmeoff, a Black Widow branded fleshlight, a Black Widow fleshlight, Agent Getsmeoff, and Möan-lnir. We’re hoping Thanos does snap his fingers while using that mighty fist.
