We are back for the Fall of 2019! Dan Collins, Chris Ellis and Adam Bishop start the season off discussing Stargate with 11+ seasons and countless spin-offs. Dan regales the lads with a cautionary tale from his days of buying comics on Kijiji and Facebook. Hot comics are dropping, like the last issue of Walking Dead, let alone the Death of Superman books. And upscaling videotape episodes of Doctor Who to Blu-Ray / Hidef is ruining the Doctor Who experience! Chris wonders how exactly can you have an Annual issue for a comic character that doesn’t even have a current series?
