Boys Find Comics

So we discuss so many comics in this episode that this would be the longest blog in the world to cover them all, so there's a selection below. If you are particularly interested in the British comics we discuss then we were going recommend the British Comics Wordpress site which has a database of almost every Brit comic you could think of - but between recording this episode and publishing it, the site has been deleted! A crying shame, it was a real treasure trove. However, we can recommend the following websites for the Brit curious:
