Ten Cent Takes

Grab your lightsabers! Find some spice to smuggle! Maybe smooch your sibling! In honor of May the Fourth: It's a very special Star Wars edition of Dollar Bin Discoveries!

This week we're talking about Amalgam Comics, the publisher that mashed up DC and Marvel comic characters! So it only makes sense to honor our show format and create a very special Dollar Bin Discovery episode with the help of a special guest expert!

Let's do some graverobbing! This week we're digging up Mort the Dead Teenager, one of the strangest comics Marvel ever put out in the 1990s. Joining us to talk about the book is zombie expert and comic creator Will Robson!

It's time to throw on some comfy sweats, grab your favorite beverage, and burrow under your favorite blanket because we're talking about cozycore comics! Mike picked up Superman Meets the Quick Bunny, while Jessika snuggled up to Star Wars: Ewoks!

Howdy, partner! This week's Dollar Bin Discoveries has us checking out some Wild West-themed comics. Mike came across an issue of the Justice League tangling with DC's Weird West heroes and Jessika rode into town with Billy the Kid's Old Timey Oddies!

What happens when you really want to put Godzilla in your comic but don't have the rights anymore? Well, if you're Marvel, you have Iron Man fight a knockoff kaiju. Buckle up, folks! We brought in Godzilla expert Nick Marino to talk about this arc, and it's an absolute blast.

Are you ready to listen to us talk about heroes you've (probably) never heard of? This week, we're looking at some lesser-known superhero books: Mike's checking out Pantheon while Jessika is reading Alter Ego from First Comics!

When is a comic not so much a comic and more a synesthesiastic pulp fever dream? This week, Jessika's taking us on a tour of one of the most avant garde comics ever: Steve Aylett's Hyperthick!

It's March! Which means it's Women's History Month! This week, the Dollar Bin Discoveries are Women's History-related. Jessika picked up Female Force: Hillary Clinton, while Mike brought in Death Talks About Life. 

What do you get when you mix 70s pulp with 90s Xtreme™ aesthetics and use “gold ink” as your marketing gimmick? The answer is Bloodseed, one of the final books from Marvel UK in the 1990s!
