With Joanna Robinson from Vanity Fair, Dave Gonzales of Thrillist.com, and Neil Miller from Film School Rejects!
Welcome to another off season tour episode of A STORM OF SPOILERS!
This week, Neil Miller is ill and in Utah for Sundance, so Joanna and Da7e decide to return for another Thought Bubble Special! The two used to have a weekly podcast about comic books and comic book media, back before other things took up their reading and chatting time. It's time to resurecct the old format with What We've Been Reading, then answering some listener e-mails! Strangley, for a podcast oft accused of being Marvel centric, it's the DC Comics universe that gets more lip service, plus: Da7e finally talks about the Fox/Disney merger superhero ramifications without getting mad at business.
Follow Neil (@rejects), Joanna (@jowrotethis), Da7e (@da7e), and the show (@StormofSpoilers) on Twitter!
