About this Episode

TFG1Mike welcomes Jeremy Fein for a deep dive into his comic book journey, using the newly revamped 25 questions format for The Pull Bag Origins episodes. Jeremy shares how he discovered comics as a first-grader in New York City, his favorite characters and runs including Spider-Ham, Tales from the Crypt, and Batman's Death of the Family, his preferences for DC over Marvel, and his thoughts on publishers like IDW. He discusses what makes a good story, his massive physical collection spanning decades, and offers advice to the comics fandom about supporting local comic book stores and appreciating comics as a visual medium for all ages.

Welcome to The Pull Bag. Join us as we dig out

our latest comics and discuss them with the rotating

panel of the GCRN crew. So sit back and enjoy

this week's Pull Bag. Hello and welcome to the

pull bag. This is episode 381 I'm of course TFG

and Mike joining me in this origins episode is

mr. Jeremy fine. Hello, sir Hello, sir. Good

to be back Good to be back and it's good that

we're not using garage band on your end because

it made you sound like a mouse That's good Yeah

The pull bag Is a kind of not really back it's

whenever i can get people to record for me. Hence

why the record monkey is here. And for a while

hopefully i can get several of my podcasting

friends to come on here who enjoy comics that

can. You know do all the recording work for me

and i can ask them the new and improved twenty

five questions for the pole bag origins. Starting

out, did you grow up reading comics? At what

age did you first remember reading or noticing

comics? Okay, this had to be between ages six

and seven and They first remember reading comics

and noticing comics So yes, definitely grew up

reading them as a kid was there a parent a friend

or Someone who just said here kid read this comic

and go away you bother me like did someone who

turns you on? to comic books as a kid It's odd

because I was walking home from school with my

mother I was in the first grade and I was talking

about Batman 66 because it was airing a lot on

WPIX channel 11 in New York City and this kid

just happened to pass by and over here and he

started to tell me about all these other different

comics and he knew I was too young for Batman

but he was trying to introduce me to Spider -Ham

which is pretty much the satire and I got hooked

on that but he was trying to show me another

comic about rats and I can't remember what it

was. but he never said, go away kid. In fact,

nobody's ever said, go away kid, you bother me.

As I got older, I was like, read this and read

that, but it was never like, but it was definitely

a complete stranger at the time. I shouldn't

talk to strangers, but this guy was okay. Very

cool, very cool. Yeah, I just, I phrase that

question that way because sometimes in some people's

cases, their parents would say, oh, here's a

comic. go read your comic and you know stop bothering

me for dinner or stop bothering me for a snack

or you know that kind of thing when you were

a kid which characters were your favorites well

between six and seven was spider ham for some

reason but when i got older it was actually from

The horror comics, The Crypt Keeper, The Old

Witch, and The Vault Keeper from The Tales of

the Crypt reprints because some kids in my neighborhood

had HBO and some didn't and I was one of the

kids that didn't have HBO. So when I heard about

the TV show and I go over the house to watch

it and I found out they were the comics, I got

to go and start to read Tales of the Crypt before

I was reading DC or Marvel because I just was

a horror guru. So, I love their wit, I love their

design, and I love the stories they told. Very

cool, very cool. Yeah, I'm not a horror guy.

I never have been. I blame Robert Englund, it's

all his fault. Scared the crap out of me at six

years old in that first Nightmare movie, and

I'm like, nope. I respect it, but nope, not for

me. Oh, I hear you, yeah. At age -old question,

DC or Marvel or both? You know we've had this

discussion off You know and and on but I have

to go with DC more because I have a degree in

social science so being the Batman fan and even

with Superman with the Philosophical aspects

Batman with the psychological aspects same thing

with Wonder Woman and with Green Lantern. I got

into Marvel after watching the MCU because you

could take an anamorphic duck and give them adventures

and it works, or you could just put somebody

in a red and yellow suit and fight a dragon that's

just made out of sounds and it works. But Marvel

takes more chances. And DC can be a little bit

more uptight, which is not a bad thing But if

you want something with more meat on the bone,

I have to go with DC Hmm I like both from very

from each of the companies. It depends for me.

It's always about characters depends on who the

care who that like Whether it's Batman whether

it's Batgirl Nightwing You know that kind of

thing I've never been one for team up books on

really either side or anything like that. But

alright, what other publishers do you enjoy reading?

Stuff like IDW, Dark Horse, Dynamite, that kind

of stuff. IDW I do enjoy because of those knowledge

of purposes. I know it wasn't on the series where

you were talking about, you know, Popeye versus

Mars attacks. You know, definitely they took

the Mars attacks and they did a lot better than

Burkin did in 1996. And I had the trading cards

for a while too. And I really liked what they

did with Transformers. I liked what they did

with the Tangent Ninja Turtles meets the real

Ghostbusters. I couldn't shut up about that one

because there was a reason why they crossed them

over and why they put them together. And I really,

really, really, really, really... And this is

probably the definitive for me. IDW nailed it.

With turtles. Oh they they they have and they

still are yeah turtles like I I didn't grow up

with the the original Eastman and Laird books

I grew up starting with the end of the original

87 animated series but once I did and People

who have listened to the show long enough know

when I when we did when my buddy Joe and I did

our very first turtles episode When he told me

to get the first trade I was like, okay, I'll

get it I got it. They were all in red bandanas.

And I'm like, Oh God, please no. He's like, no,

give it a shot. You'll like what they do. And

I'm like, okay, I gave it a shot. And all these

years later, we're still trying to play catch

up at this point. The last thing we did for that

was the, uh, kingdom of rats arc, which was episode

issues 81 to 85. So we got some catching up to

do on turtles here in the show. Yeah, the last

thing I'm gonna say though is that I got into

the original Turtles after the first movie that

came out in 1990 somebody Shove that book in

my face, but it was a reprint not the original

So yeah, right if you get the I know IDW has

started to issue the reprints of the original

series of Turtles So they get now more than they

were back then Yeah very much so Print or digital

which one both either or and why? Yeah, we've

had the discussion. I think but I Here's the

problem though with print Over the years if you

don't take care of your comics You don't have

the right mile or the right back and you know

the hold up, you know The boards to hold up the

books and everything. Yep You know, after a while,

paper will just start to turn yellow and disintegrate.

I know a lot of people are collectors because

they want everything signed and they want everything

preserved. Then you figure digital, then you

can just keep it on your iPad and then you can

download it onto the cloud and blah, blah, blah.

But turning the page and everything, looking

at those ads from the 80s, like if you want to

get that buy, call Janine. But. Nostalgia purposes

and and and answer movies and other comics and

and and the editor, you know answering fans questions

Digital I find it to be if I'm in a doctor's

office my only problem is again if I get something

signed I'm not putting it on eBay because then

I don't have it anymore but exactly but the only

problem that I have is is that I treat it like

fine China because I have newspapers that my

grandparents gave me from the 20s that they kept.

And if you don't take good care of it, it falls

apart. So it's a tough one. It really is. And

I'm jumping through a lot of hoops, but I like

both. But in today's age, I can understand that

if you want to preserve paper and save some trees,

digital, but for nostalgia purposes, print. So

it's like 50 -50. There you go. That's cool.

Who are some of your favorite comics writers

and why? Okay, well we lost Danny O 'Neil. I

mean that that was yeah mate. May he rest in

peace. Ah God he first of all he Helped the Bronze

Age and you know But new 52 I gotta go with Snyder

And I met Snyder and not only did I meet Snyder,

but he was the only person that I didn't have

to pay fifty dollars to shake his hand. He spoke

to and as well as Amanda Carter and Jimmy Ponte

from Harley Quinn, because they were nice enough

at a convention to say, you know, if you want

us to sign something, you have to buy a book.

But if you want to talk, you know, but Snyder,

actually, I should take that back. Snyder, if

you had your book with you. No charge if you

wanted to shake your hand no charge if anything

no charge So Snyder is too cool for school for

me as well as you know Jimmy Carter definitely

and and Amanda But Danny I never really got to

meet unfortunately I would almost even go with

Frank Miller But unfortunately over the years

and then there's Brian Posse who brought back

A great run with Deadpool as well as Greg Dugan.

So, I mean, there were so many, unfortunately,

but those are definitely, I know we're not doing

top fives, but God, there were so many runs that

were just like so underrated. But if I had to

pick one right now, it breaks my heart, but I

would go with Snyder. But yeah, I mean, Snyder

helped new 52 more ways than one. Yep. What defines

a good story to you? That's easy. It's the first

act the second act and the third but it also

has to do a valid point I mean comics over the

years. I finally got my hands on some Silver

Age and boy they felt like insulting your intelligence

and and I can understand with with that seduction

of the innocent book but boy they just you could

tell there were a lot of frustrated writers,

but somehow there were some peanuts in those

turds and as For what makes a good story is that

if you have a balance of good and evil and you

have not being so repetitious that you have it

where Okay, if the villain and the hero at least

have a respect for each other or Not so much

of a cat and mouse because that's really Catwoman

and Batman, but if you have something like Wriggler

and Batman where they both kind of respect each

other because they both have to use their brains

to fight or if you have Bane where it's brains

and brawn versus Batman's brains and ball brawn

or Joker with with his gadgets against Batman's

gadgets if and and respect for each other understanding

for each other and and still reinventing the

wheel with keeping it fresh over the years then

that's to me is pulling an effort and trying

and not just trying to make a quick buck, but

it's hard for a superhero. Now, for any other

story, you have to do something that I know is

hard that you haven't done before. I'm tired

of origin stories and but somehow with Turtles

and IDW, they created, in my opinion, definitive

origin story, which I'm not going to spoil if

you don't know what it is. But I'm telling you,

pick up the NIDW turtles and that teaches you

how to do an origin story. So, and also kind

of a respect of your own villain if it's not

wearing a cape and cowl. So yeah, that, that's

definitely all I ask for. Very true. What does

the story have to have to draw you in? Like what,

what does like a solicitation have to say in

order for you to be like, oh, I really want to

read that series. Like when, DC black label first

solicited Harley Quinn or Yeah, wasn't it Harley

Quinn probably the the Damn it. What is that

called? The hell is the damn thing called I should

know this by now. I don't know anyway Like that's

what that's what it is. Yeah, when DC first solicited

Harleen I was trying to think of the stupid name

the actual name of the yeah So basically that's

what the question is What what does a story have

to have to draw you into it to have you say?

I'm gonna add that to my digital bin Well if

it's Sometimes it's the cover but if it's word

-of -mouth and you find out who the writer and

the illustrator are then it's like shut up and

take my money. If, for example, when I found

out that Scott Snyder and Greg Kapoor were coming

back because they never finished their Batman

run, I was like, I'm down. So that's pretty much

it. Harleen, or if you look at that book Joker

Smile, there's just something about it that draws

me, even something like killing Joke, just to

see how screwed up Joker can be. You know, because

I didn't really know who Alan Moore was at the

time, and that's another writer that's underrated.

But, you know, it has to just deal with three

things for me. It's either the cover or it's

got to be the writer slash illustrator or pretty

much if social media can be mature word of mouth

and wine and not just having a sandbox about

it. and you know what the sandbox is. I'm not

going to get into that, but yeah, those are the

three things for me. Harley Quinn, I mean, the

original run, I think we talked about, I couldn't

shut up about that run, but Harleen, yeah, we're

going to save that for another time because that's

a whole different conversation. Oh, yeah. Absolutely.

Who are some of your favorite comics artists?

Oh, God. Well, definitely Kapoor from New 52.

There were some illustrators I know I the names

on the tip of my tongue but if you he was also

the creator of mad magazine after seduction of

innocent came and went and he He was working

on the tales of the crypt and easy run before

you know that one Capote he created mad magazine

to like keep afloat but again, there are so many

I have to go with Kapoor because he really took

cartoon characters or I'm not gonna say anything

bad about what the other illustrators did over

the years in the Bronze Age, but he really took

something like Joker and with the face cut off

and how he just took that stretchy face and death

of the family and how he kept taking it off and

stapling it back on him was just amazing. So

I have to go, I have to give credit to Critters.

I have to just go with Kapoor on this one. Mm

-hmm. Just for that image alone. Right, yeah.

Do you have a favorite non -superhero title?

Yeah, I like to call Tales from the Crypt. Very

cool. What was your favorite run of a series?

God. For now, it's a... God. It would either

be a tie between Marvel's Infinity Gauntlet or

Batman's Death of the Family. Very cool. What

is one comic you can read over and over again,

single issue or trade? Single issue or trade.

Well, definitely for single issue, I would go

with... Oh God definitely the the the first issue

of Batman Death of the family just because it

drew me in but trade I'm actually gonna go with

something called Legends of the Dark Knight going

sane Hmm interesting. When did that come out?

94. Oh It's one of the old ones. Okay, very cool

Are there comics now folks up to this point these

13 questions they've all kind of been positive

I've thrown a few negative ones in here, but

not so They're not all in here, but you got to

throw some of these hard ones in here at some

point Are there comics you avoid altogether?

Yeah I Again because if it comes down to the

capes If it comes down to the Capes and it comes

down to DC and Marvel, I really try to get into

Rebirth as much as I can, but it's... I'm not...

Yeah, I'm gonna put a pin on that one on why.

As for Marvel now, the same thing, but non -Capes,

yeah, I've really tried... I know we talked about

Image Comics for a while, and I really tried

to defend them, but after a couple issues with

some of them, except for Walking Dead, There

were some that I had some hope for, and I was

just getting really disappointed with what Image

had become. I mean, I love Spawn, don't get me

wrong. But yeah, Image kind of tripped over the

finish line for a while. And so, non -cape -wise,

just disappointed with them. I'll say this. You

should try, uh, I Hate Fairyland by Scotty Young.

I love, I, I love, I Hate Fairyland. I, oh God.

I know you were talking about that one. Yes.

Well, yeah. Okay. So this kind of, uh, relates

to which part of your answer was just there.

So are there any comics past or currently that

you wish you hadn't read them? I'm not going

to... Definitely not gonna bash I hate fair land

that that that's an underrated that that's in

a class by itself right now But there was one

there was definitely one that I was reading when

we're talking about image. It had something to

do with Superheroes. It was something like oh,

yeah God hates superheroes. I think that's what

it was from image It had an interesting idea

and premise and it was coasting I felt it was

gonna be to either satirizing DC's Doom Patrol

or mystery men and But it just got so disappointing.

And there was another one that just forgot the

title, but it had to do with cryptozoology, where

it was Bigfoot that teamed up with a human, and

it was almost going to be like X -Files and it's

so much promise. And they just didn't know what

to do with it. Interesting. Weird. How large

or small is your physical comic book collection?

Have lost count because it's it's literally been

because I'm going back to from the 80s to present

and I'm just afraid to touch it that it's gonna

dissipate I can tell you right now. I had boxes

man. So yeah All right, what is the one comic

you could never live without ever? Well, it's

not a cape or cow if you can believe it, but

it was a really rare Book that came out in 96.

It was Charles Barkley versus Godzilla And really

yes, it was very it's not worth anything now

It's rare, but it's only worth like in the double

digits because it's it was just to advertise

shoes, you know and They had those commercials

so somebody came in with a comic book and the

difference between the commercial in the comic

was Barkley and Godzilla play basketball to promote,

you know the sneaker line As for this comic,

it's a kid that just is at a beach in, I think,

California and sees Godzilla and Charles Barkley

is filming a commercial and just walks over to

Charles Barkley and goes, fight Godzilla. And

Barkley's like, no, because, you know, it's Godzilla.

And somehow he becomes big and they fight with

a basketball. It's really bizarre, but it's something

to hold in your collection if you're just a Godzilla

fan. And it was the 90s and that's pretty much

what it was. Very cool. Very cool What was the

most money you ever spent on a comic or a comic

item? Oh God, this is a good one. Yeah, I probably

spent the triple digits on a adaptation of cool

world because I Was recording a podcast on cool

world the movie which I actually enjoyed because

I'm a fan of Ralph Baskie but I found out that

the adaptation was different from the movie because

it had a different vision and I had to read it

and wasn't disappointed, but it cost a lot of

cheddar. But when I read it, it was definitely

it answered a lot of questions. So I have no

regret about it. Very cool. Very cool. Was there

ever a moment in your life when you were done

with comics? Yeah, I think it's a little known

movie called Batman and Robin. And I said, oh,

I can't wait to tell that story. Because that's

a story I'm not going to repeat. I'm going to

tell that once with a group of people. But it's

interesting. I mean, it's 2020, and I still haven't

finished that movie. But I'll go into why. But

I just felt like writers, because of the, we

talked about this too about the comic book crash.

And unfortunately, because of the comic book

crash, because they were coming out with new

Covers for the comics. I mean bongo comics was

doing this with the Simpsons and Because they

had one where a character would die on every

page. They did this with Ren and Stimpy where

powder toast man met spider -man and They had

some cool ideas, but they were kind of getting

a little you know long in the tooth and it was

just going to be silly and I just felt like the

writers are just giving up and the movies aren't

doing that well and You know the superman got

killed just so much comic books and was getting

you know, what's the point? so I took a huge

break until new 52 came out so between 97 to

2011 when everything was like in the world again.

Yeah, so that that that's a good timeline Hmm

interesting What are you reading right now? And

what do you think our listeners should check

out? Okay, this is easy. I know batman but Hear

me out. Why actually two things. Um, I am reading

batman the last night on earth because it's you

know, Greg kapoor and scott snider ending their

run, but i'm also reading scoop apocalypse because

After watching that god -awful scoop movie and

I had to just like get a power cleanser and watch

pup named scooby -doo and mystery incorporated

and guess who scooby -doo I found I came across

that there was you know, he's a wanted brother's

character now. So dc decided Well, we'll put

him in a universe where he's fighting zombies

and it's interesting read but um I got a little

disappointed because it feels like it's neither

living dead meets scooby -doo so it's okay, but

I rather go with batman the last night on earth

because It's definitely if this was a serious

finale. This is something that the no one first

should have been or Snyder should have been this

is probably the definitive series finale that

has nothing to do with the animated series, but

boy, it is probably, you know, it's like you

need a cigarette when you don't like, was it

good for you, baby? No, it really is. It's actually,

I mean, I did go back and forth with Flashpoint

because that's also an interesting read, but

I have to go with Batman Last Night on Earth.

Awesome. Alright, this is a new question for

guests. Heroes, heroines, anti -heroes, heroines,

or villains? What archetypes are your go -to

reads? I like the anti -heroes at this point

with Harley Quinn because, you know, my problem

with Superman has always been nice guy, but,

you know, there's something odd about him. Batman

is Batman, you know, he has trust issues. Harlequin

is in between but she's also a little sarcastic

and when I read her It's not a Betty and Veronica,

but I also like the fact that she's acting like

Robin Hood from now You know from time to time

like she'll she'll go into a corrupt politicians

house and Tell some bad jokes while robbing him,

but she'll give the money and the people will

deserve it So I really really appreciate what

they do with her with the antihero but as for

heroes Look, you can't go wrong with Batman because

you know, he's the goddamn Batman heroines, I

mean I love Wonder Woman in new 52 and as for

villains Right now anything that's individual

trade of Joker especially the Brian Azzaro that

came out in 2008 before Dark Knight came out.

That was a great read. And I really appreciate

what they did with him, again, with Snyder. And

Riddler, too. The only thing I'll say, though,

with Rebirth, what Tom King kind of did with

bringing back Kite Man, that was interesting.

And now he's on the Harley Quinn show. I mean

villains at this point. It's really hard to create

a better villain than between Joker and Riddler

because of their history, but Bane I Guess you

got to go back to like Bronze Age especially

with Nightfall to see how good Bane really was

and why he Deserves a better writer than Kam

King, but that's just me Do you have a parents

got rid of my comics story? So is there any time

and in your life that your parents sold your

comics that you were getting? No, because they

would pay for them and they were kind of like,

yeah Although they would secretly give away my

collection in the 90s because they felt like

oh I know this person's really sick and I figured

this book would help cheer them up and I was

pissed because I was like That's my red and stimpy

man. And I'm you know I know when in Stimpy,

first of all, the show was different from the

comic. They still tried to be silly, but they

still had notes that they couldn't be too gross

or, you know, push the boundaries the way they

did on Nickelodeon. But they were still getting

away with a few things. And then I know this

has nothing to do with anything, but they were

still mad and cracked that they were satirizing

Lion King. And it was a really good version for

both how they were satirizing Lion King. So I

was pissed off. Yeah. Very cool. Very cool. Yeah,

that question is in there because of when I was

a kid, my dad got rid of my He -Man toys at the

time. So I figure, oh, somebody must have my

parents get rid of my comic book story at some

point. What is one item from a comic book you'd

love to have in the real world? Oh, God, this

is a good one. You know, I'm simple. I really

am. I would probably go with one of Joker's knives

because he just prefers knives to guns because,

you know, knives just show the true person and

I just love how he cuts. So anything custom made

that was held by Mr. J would be awesome by me.

I would almost go with Penguin's umbrella because

I know why he used it back in the day because

he was hiding weapons in there and then it just

became a thing where he tricked out his umbrellas.

but I mean, it's a tough call. It's between the

two, but there's just something like holding

a choker knife would just be so cool for me.

For me, since this is a new question and we've

never had this question on the show before for

Origins, since I revamped all these questions.

And this question actually comes from my buddy,

Jesse Raz. So for me, I would... Don't know I

mean If you know Green Lantern's ring was real

I think that would be really cool to have in

the real world I'm not sure. I'm the best person

to wield that power, but I don't know maybe one

of Probably one of Batman be one of Terry McGinnis's

batarangs I would love to have that out of the

comics. That would be really cool if you could

create Any comic storyline, what would you want

to create and what characters would you want

to create with it? So this one is basically somehow

magically you're hired by DC and you get the

keys to the kingdom from whatever. Oh, I would

love to really work on a better suicide squad.

line but I would do it my way where I would just

like start over again and I put in Harley, I

would put in shark, I would put in the Matt Hagen

clay face, probably put in like Jason Todd and

I would just have it where they're not so much

comedic villains that and I'm poison ivy as well

because you know it's Harley and you know but

put them in where they're not so much comedic

villains, but they're kind of... they're definitely

anti -heroes, but they're not so much Justice

League Dark or the Injustice League, but I would

do a better job with Suicide Squad because my

only problem with Sui - I mean, I understand

why Suicide Squad was created, but for them to

have bombs in their neck and be controlled by

Waller, I hate. So I would just have them be

like... Not so much suicide squad but give them

a better name and just have them go out and just

do the things that You know the Justice League

doesn't want to do but they're not corrupt, but

they're still pending the rules Right. I know

that's a little confusing but it's kind of it's

it's kind of like when I read when I read Harley

Quinn the Valentine's special back in the day

where she Like I said, she goes to corrupt politician

and she's breaking his arms because she finds,

you know, she found out that he kept money from,

you know, the good people of Gotham and he keeps

it underneath his floorboards and keeping it

for himself. But she gives it back and she does

it in her own way or she goes and she finds out

that this woman in a nursing home is being abused.

So she does this home evasion of the family and

the neglected son is in the basement playing

with the model trains and she's stepping on the

leg. She's like, I'm Godzilla. You know, stuff

like that. And I feel that if you have it with

Ivy because Ivy She hates humans, but she can

get along with Harley for some reason and The

Mad Hagen clay face I feel is an underrated character,

but it could be useful because his shape shifter

King shark is just I Feel like he's not so much

DC's version of the Hulk or Groot but I feel

that he's an interesting character because he's

a talking mutant shark, but there's just something

enjoyable about him. And Jason Todd, I mean,

he's the second Robin that just had this arrogance

about him. And we've kind of seen an arrogant

Batman known as Owl Man on Earth 3 back in the

80s during crisis often in Earths. And we really

haven't seen that since. So I kind of like to

see like a Justice League that's a little more

snarky, a little bit more arrogant, but a little

bit more, you know, not, you know, showing the

teeth and everything and the fake smile. That

sounds interesting. All right. Last question.

What is the one piece of advice you would give

the comics fandom? One piece of advice I give

that comes a fandom how God definitely Support

your local comic book store. I know that the

price of comics now are pretty much The price

of a gallon of milk or you know two loaves of

bread or you know gases different all over the

place and five dollars for a comic is insane

at this point, but You know, there's a lot of

artists out there and writers that are trying

and some that are just like I've gotten the keys

to the kingdom, but I feel like They could try

but they don't really understand the craft and

Tom King I'm sorry, but I'm looking at you and

then there are others that I feel that just had

fun with putting Scooby -Doo with the zombie

universe or putting wacky races and a Mad Max

universe And then I feel that Stanley is up in

heaven, looking down, smiling about how Mylus

Morales is doing well in, you know, Earth 616

and Marvel. And I feel that even with IDW, it's

not just selling a comic of nostalgia. You have

a lot of great stories. So they're still out

there. And... You don't have to be six years

old or 96 year old to appreciate a good story.

I feel it You know, you're not my psychiatrist

or anything but and I'm talking to you and all

the listeners out there when I say psychiatrist

but I Sometimes have problems paying attention.

So and when I'm reading a story like this, it

has to be visual So that's all about comics and

graphic novels because it helps me visualize.

I'm still using my imagination. Don't get me

wrong but I feel that If you can bring me into

a story and make it visual, it helps me. And

I've known people over the years that were illiterate,

that comics helped them to read because of the

simple dialogue, which is not a bad thing. So

it's not just for kids anymore. And the stories

have gotten to a point, some good, some bad,

and shops have good days and bad days. But I

just have to say, I don't think this is a die

medium. I just feel that you have to take it.

with a grain of salt and there is something for

everybody and there is one thing catered for

you and it doesn't just have to be about superheroes

anymore or any less so that's always a good thing

awesome awesome all right where can the people

find you online you want to promote your podcast

stuff whatever that whatever you'd like to talk

nursing program that I'm finishing up by this

fall so that podcast The archive should be back

That you'll find on Podbean Hunna Queen, which

is pretty much what I've done is treated like,

you know, those trick -or -treat lantern things

you get, you know, you pull out something and

you get candy corn, you get a rock, you get...

Well, that's what you can do with Hunna Queen.

You know, whatever you pull out, whatever comes

to mind could be a... Ten -minute episode could

be a four -hour episode could be about anything

related to pop culture Sometimes horror rated
