Jeff, Django, and Roman are blasting from the past to give us a look into comic books that came out the second week of July 2025. So, maybe you'll hear a little bit about the James Gunn Superman movie too... so gear up and tighten your seatbelts so Rome-Flash can speed you back to different days...

Django Bohren
Do Turtles Have Tails?

Roman and Django are buddied up for the first time in forever to discuss some VERY important topics. Interestingly enough, we have a whole bunch of animal-focused comics this week, and yet, we have no Jeff! Guess we'll have to get his thoughts after you listen to this episode!

Django Bohren
Denys En-Camp-ment

Jeff and Roman are missing Django this week, so we've got a significantly smaller number of fart jokes. But that doesn't seem to hurt the flow of the podcast! More crises, some new histories, a trip to the past, and maybe, just maybe, Django will make himself heard despite being away. Who knows? You will, once you hit play!

Guide Us, All-Spark!

Oh My Me! Oh My Me!!

It’s Jeff, everybody! Andrew is away on a MUCH-NEEDED trip to the Philippines of all places! What a wonderful and industrious fella that Andrew is.

Well, in his stead, I’ve dusted off the editing software and cobbled SOMETHING together from the blathering Jeff, Roman, & Django did this week.

No spoilers here, but…. there are A LOT of high scores this week. Like…. most of MY comics were in the “9-range” but make sure and drink plenty of water, because I believe Roman dropped a handful of Geoducks. Buckle up, it’s gonna be messy!

Django Bohren
An In-Between Place

Jeff and Django are quite busy this week, so they're stopping in to say hi!

Django Bohren
