Ep. #142 - Novelty Yojimbo

• Read 'Em and Weep - Acme Novelty Datebook Vol. 2 by Chris Ware and Usagi Yojimbo Vol. 1 by Stan Sakai - this all leads into a huge discussion about art and a lot of other stuff.
• The Listen... - This segment is changing, man, it's so different. Check out a song by Sondre Lerche and The Olms.

The DCBS Interview!

Interview!

We sat down with Christina Merkler, co-owner of Discount Comic Book Services. DCBS not only offer amazing discounts on comics, but also sponsor our show! 

Christina chatted with us about the beginnings of DCBS, specifically how they began in a basement and steadily grew until the basement became nothing more than a cage to hold them back (she doesn't say that; I made that up); what they like about the industry, and how they feel about digital. She has a very unique perspective on the retailer side of comics, and it's one we're deeply interested in. This interview is why we left our microphones in Fort Wayne - on accident, so it's not why but how - and we really hope you enjoy it.
