A back issue review of The Mod Squad #3, and I talk about Plastic Farm #8 & 9. Also, JJ stops by to talk about Dark Tower: The Gunslinger Born #2, Liberty Meadows book 4 trade, and Ultimate Fantastic Four vol.5 trade. Then, do I watch Heroes? Finally, podcast recommendations and a song. (28:12) All cover images are copyright their respective copyright holders.

Superboy #180. As any listener of the show knows, I have a weakness for the old Superman/Superboy comics. This is another one of the first 100 or so comics I owned (and still do, of course). It was bought at a yard sale with a handful of others. This comic is a thrilling 48 pages (no small amount when you're a kid), with two fun Superboy tales and a Legion of Super-heroes reprint (probably the first Legion story I ever read, featuring the origin of Bouncing Boy). Definitely sunshine-n-smiles memories over this one...

I'm sure you've all heard by now that Arnold Drake, of Doom Patrol fame, and Marshall Rogers, noted for Batman and many more, have died. Quite a few comics creators have passed away in the last 6 months. Each time I hear of another, I tend to feel more sadness about them than a thousand Anna Nicoles.
