This week, Brian is on vacation with his family, and so regular fourth chair Walter Richardson graces the show with his presence and classes up the joint instantly.

Books Discussed: "Action Comics 2021 Annual" #1 "Batman" #110 "Batman Secret Files: The Signal" #1 "Crush and Lobo" #2 "Green Lantern" #4 "Wond...
