Podcast: Single Issue Favourites

Available from all your usual podcast providers, or listen here:

It's all well and good talking about comics, but they are obviously a visual medium - pretty pictures! Therefore, to accompany each episode, we also do a little blog post with some images and other extras to give you some context as to what on earth we're talking about!

In the season finale Mike and Lee talk about some of their favourite ever single issues, including some X-Men, some Spider-Man and take a brief respite from Marvel in Midnighter. They explore what makes a great single issue comic and how the medium has changed since the 90s - or "about a decade ago" as Mike likes to thinks of it.

Plus what Mike and Lee have read this week, and another addition to the Comics or Death Museum.
