The Fellowship is pleased to present our discussion of delays in the comics industry. Ripped from the headlines, we talk a bit about how the printing process works, what happens to your local stores when delays hit, and how annoyed Les--I mean the average reader gets with said delays. And as always, our picks of the week.
What we're up to this week:
Mikey - nothing fun (houseguests over the weekend)
TC - The MLJ Companion: The Complete History of The Archie Super-Heroes!
Les - on vacation in Hawaii (such dedication to call in from Paradise, even with technical difficulties)
The entirety of North Texas - in Hell (it's been a little hot this week)
