Chris & Reggie "Box-Set", Volume 8 - Charlton Comics

Two episodes still counts as a "box set", right?  Well, it's good enough for us... and if it saves folks from having to hunt them down in our all-too confusing archives, then... all the better!

In these two episodes, we break down the rise... and fall of Charlton Comics.  We discuss the founders, and their chance meeting inside a jail cell... to the "in-house" production model (using a printing press that was once used for cereal boxes... and it shows!), the staffers, the great flood... and whatever happened with those "Action Heroes" we all know and love.

Cosmic Treadmill ep. 84 - Superman Meets the Quik Bunny (1987)

Happy Pesach! In today's episode, our qlubhouse qharacters Chris (@AceComics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) investigate the mysteries of Easter--after reading Superman Meets the Quik Bunny by Mike Carlin, Carmine Infantino, and Dick Giordano from 1987! After some short biographical information for everyone, including "Quicky" the Quik mascot himself, our chocoloate milkoholics read the entire issue, spoiling even the puzzles for the uninitiated. Following a commercial break, it's time for the true story of Easter--which may not be the story you're thinking of! A run-down of the Quik Bunny's other comic book appearances and some listener mail rounds out this episode that is more fun than a basket of colored eggs.
