80 years of DC Comics

Pop Culture Affidavit Presents: 80 Years of DC Comics Episode 8 — Comedy

Everything’s a laugh riot here for this episode of my DC Comics retrospective, as I take a look at books that put the funny in funny books! I start out by taking a very quick look at couple of the short comic strips in New Fun Comics #5, then Brett and I read a story from Sugar and Spike #3 before Michael Bailey joins me for an in-depth discussion of The Adventures of Jerry Lewis #86. Finally, I finish up with quick looks at Ambush Bug #4, Ambush Bug Nothing Special #1, and Bizarro #2.

80 Years of DC Comics, Part Two: Romance

My look at the other side of DC Comics gets going this episode as I dive in head-first and go for the one comic book genre that’s more or less dead and is probably not going to be resurrected anytime soon: romance! To guide me through this journey through the turmoil that love can cause, I have brought along a special guest, Stella (From Batgirl to Oracle)! So join us as we take a look at Secret Hearts #153.
