Tony White joins the lads to discuss what’s arrived in our collections. What pickups or mail-calls have we got in recently. Tony shows off some of his gems from buying a few collections. Chris Ellis is mainly excited about some Kickstarter projects that have been delivered. Dan Collins talks about what LEFT in a box rather than what came in as he recently went through a little purge, as did Marty. Chris Gilpin has been getting his comic book fix from the TV medium so he gives us all the tips on the latest streaming shows. Martin Boruta got in some nice Silver Age books to fill in holes in his slightly smaller collection.
