Under the Comic Covers

Latest Episodes:

134: CHEW #59; Saga #39; Wayward #17 Oct 28, 2016

Show notes

Under the Comic Covers takes on three incredible issues of three of our favorite titles. First, we have a chat about the penultimate issue of CHEW, which, surprisingly, turns out to be the final issue of the actual story of CHEW... sigh. We get sad. We then move on to Saga #39, another opportunity to have our hearts carved out slowly, one chunk at a time. Finally, we get some levity into the show with Wayward #17... love hotels ftw.

Enjoy!
