Comic Books and Cold Ones

Comic Books and Cold Ones is where two friends don their alter egos as masters of comic book obscura while drinking whatever they got rolling around the bottom of the fridge. If you ever wanted to know who really is the worst cold based villain in Marvel, DC, and all other ‘verses or what it took to house train Lockjaw from the Inhumans, then quest no further. Get out your favorite 12-point articulating action figure and listen to us ramble through comic history, what we’re reading now, the latest Hollywood takes on it all, beer reviews, and a little Quasar. Yes, even Quasar! Grab a cold one ‘cause you will need it.
