Jace talks about a few of the Indie books he got a chance to check out for the week of March 19, 2025. Power Fantasy continues to be one of the best comics out currently and it's latest issue introduces us to the final Superpower we haven't seen before, Eliza Hellhound. The debut of The Last Boy extrapolates the idea of Peter Pan as the boy who never wants to grow up to the extreme as it examines what happens when everyone around him has moved on and left him behind. Bug Wars #2 ramps up the action with some fantastic art and pacing, plus just wait until you see the bug version os Syd! The Deviant closing out in a satisfying manner, even considering the momentum it lost due to being so late. Rocketfellers is the perfect example of how to give a large case time to shine in each issue as the story moves forward, but never forgets to give some space to add development to each character. Gunslinger Spawn gets one step closer to the man he believe kidnapped his sister, but just how much will he be outnumbered by when he confronts him? Join us to hear about all these books and more, plus a rundown on other titles you might want to be on the lookout for.

Jace and Rocky break down some of the indie titles for the week of March 26, 2025 that they have had a chance to read. Radiant Black continues to deal with the fall out of the Catalyst War. A supervillain;'s daughter begins to her father'strue nature but before she can even decide how she feels about this revealation he is assassinated. Now her choice is to take revenge, if she can or finally live a life of freedom, but with a title like We're Taking Everyone Down With Us, you can probably guess what she will choose. The follow up from the creator of the smash-hit Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees drops this week as the "Have's" are forced to give up half their fortunes for the benefit of the "Have-Not's" or they can choose to battle to the death in a gladiatoral-lie arena. Kids give us a look at a horrifying world where very young kids become adults overnight and chaos ensues. Bitter Root returns with a new colume set in a new era, but with the same incredible storytelling we have come to expect from the series. The Lore War starts soon and the last Star Trek Defiant issue leading into it is a must-read for TNG fans with a fan-favorite character playing a major role. Stand Still comes to a satisfying conclusion as does Big Burn with both books making for excellent reads in their upcoming collected editions. Dust to Dust continues it's slow build with fantastic character work and You'll Do Bad Things is a compelling, if not mysterious, narrative with artwork that just oozes with style. Join us to hear about these books and more in this Indie Spotlight!

Jace and Rocky chat about some of the Indie titles they have read for the week of February 26, 2025. Radiant Black returns with a great jumping on point for new readers, but returning fans will have a lot to unpack also with consequences from the Catalyst War heavy on Marshall's mind. Also Department of Truth returns to its current day storyline with loyalties and motivations on the minds of, seemingly, everyone. Kill Train is back with its second issue and it is laugh-out-loud satirical fun. Seasons #2 gives us a glimpse into each sister and her specific demeanor, which sort of match up with their names. Dust to Dust continues to be the best illustrated book on the stands and the slow burn tension is still building. Vicarious comes to a satisfying conclusion while Pop Kill is just getting started. Join us to hear about these books and more!

Jace and Rocky chat about a few of the indie titles for the week of February 19, 2025. G.I. Joe starts to gain some momentum and Star Trek continues its march toward the Lore War. The adventure of Flash Gordon continue to be incredible fun and the world of InBloom is creepier than ever. The top boosk of the week include the epitome of a western story in Deadly Tales of the Gunlslinger, the incredible horrific but gorgeously depicted techno-horror title w0rldtr33 and the equisitely layered and nuanced characterization and storytelling in Power Fantasy. Join us to hear about these titles and more.

Jace and Rocky chat about a few of the independent titles they have read for the week of February 12, 2025. Bug Wars debuts with an incredible start mixing the idea of tiny hidden people with epic fantasy like game of thrones or Lord of the rings, a true Must-Read! Geiger continues to tell the at times very traumaticv story of its title character with incredible emotion and The Lucky Devils strikes a great balance of entertainment and bigger philosophical questions.

Jace and Rocky chat about three indie titles for the week of February 5, 2025. Grim is reaching new heights of character drama. Juvenile continues it's excellent premise and Rocketfellers is firing on all cylinders, Joi us for our thoughts on these titles and a run down on what other books you may want to be on the lookout for.

Douglas Vincent; the third member of the Douglas Vincent DID System returns to continue his discussion with Mike, where they nerd out about Star Wars! This week, in part 2, Doug gives his thoughts on the Sequel Trilogy, noting his favourite film of the three and then following this, they talk about Canon and Legends comics & books, including Aphra and the many crossover events in the 2020 main Star Wars run. Towards the end, Doug talks about lessons within Skeleton Crew (no spoilers) and addresses people's thoughts about characters some believe have DID traits. If you missed part 1, Doug & Mike started by speaking about Douglas' first experience with Star Wars and recalling memories of his childhood, including watching half a recording of Empire Strikes Back on VHS! The conversation then lead into the modern era, as Doug explained his experiences with the Prequel Trilogy, plus the duo discussed “The Dark Years” of Star Wars (when barely anything was being released), followed by the steady release of books and comics following the Heir To The Empire trilogy.

Jace talks about a few of the Indie books for the week of January 15, 2025. Finders/Keepers gives us a "reverse" Indiana Jones, who steals artifacts from museums and returns them to their rightful indigenous peoples, it's the latest entry into the Horizon Experiment. The first volume of Skin Police has a crazy ending and we can't wait for volume 2. Brood and Minor Arcana both continue their excellent narratives leaning heavily on expert characterization from their respective writers. You Won't Feel a Thing is an incredible debut focusing on a detective dealign with early onset dementia tryign to hold on long enough to catch the one serial killer that has eluded him his entire career and may be someone he grew up with.

Jace and Rocky chat about the Independent books for the week of January 22, 2024. It's an incredible week as the guys had a tough time narrowing down which boosk to talk about and then even a tougher time picking their respective Book of the Week. Life from DSTLRY continues to be equal parts disturbing, action-packed and thought provoking a must-read for sure! Hyde Street gives us a holiday tale we wish had been in time for Christmas, but that doesn't lessen it's impact or the brilliant way it contextualizes the residents of Hyde Street and hints at their motivations. Deadly Tales of the Gunsliger also hints at some origins and motivations and we are excited to learn more in this slow burn western with perfect art. Revolution ( and Hour of the Wolf both continue to build to the Mad Cave summer crossover. In Bloom nearly takes Rocky's pick for favorite title of the week with it's eerie story and creepy art. Tin Can Society comes for close as Jace's pick with an absolutely shocking final page. Ultimately, Rocky chooses Time Waits for it's relatively happy and emotional ending which celebrates a life well lived. Jace picks Vicarious, which very much fits into the theme this week of what it means to live a laugh, what gives life meaning and how it can be taken for granted. Just an incredible week of books. Join us to hear about these titles and more!

Jace and Rocky close out 2024 with the final week of indie titles. We get three books from ghost Machine with Geiger providing a bit of a Hulk vibe and Redcoat showing that Simon Pure is a character you can tell any type of story with. Hornsby & Halo's second issue shows that the story is much bigger than we first thought and Rocky chooses it as his book of the week. We get some spectacular art in Violator as it provides some alternate history. Speaking of history, Dust to Dust is set during the Great Depression with a serial killer loose in a small town. Join us to hear our thoughts on these titles and more.

Jace and Rocky review several independent titles for the week of December 18. 2024. Power Fantasy continues to be top-notch as does Tin Can Society, both are excellent examples of character pieces with the narratives driven by the interpersoanl relationships of the characters. Freddie the Fix is beautifully illustrated and harkens back to Old Hollywood in a lot of ways, Exit City and String from Mad Cave Studios are also continuing their compelling narratives and superb art while defining unique worlds and settings. Star trek is building towards the Lore War and Standstill reminds us of one of our facorite scenes from one of our favorite movies. Rocketfellers is an absolute joy and celebration of Christmas time and family, while Deadly Tales of the Gunslinger somehow exceeds the extremely high expectations we had for the series from the start.

Jace and Rocky chat about some of their favorite indie titles for the week of December 11, 2024. Brood is an excellent addition to the Minor Threats universe drawing inspiration from stories like Succession and Royal Tenenbaums. Minor Arcana continues to be an intense character piece from Jeff Lemire who is a master of the craft. In Bloom introduces us to a world where mutation are desired and even considered beautiful, but be careful what you wish for. Doll Parts gives us an early look at the world of Lovesick and The City Beneath Her Feat is an absolute must-read mash up of 60 mod style and romantic crime-noir.

Clone Wars Conversations continues with one of the most iconic Clone Wars arcs of all-time; the finale of Season 5 (episodes 17-20)! Dave, Maff & Mike talk in-depth about the full 4 episode arc in this release, which Mike calls “The Jedi Temple Bombing Arc”! In this episode, the trio discuss this ground-shattering finale to Season 5, finally answering the question (for Maff); why did Ahsoka leave the Jedi Order? The trio discuss the many failings of the Jedi, Ahsoka's relationships with both Anakin and Barriss Offee, Tarkin's involvement, the animation improvements and the weight that the finale episode carries, plus Mike spinkles in a few bits of canon trivia throughout! Episodes featured; Sabotage, The Jedi Who Knew Too Much, To Catch A Jedi & The Wrong Jedi. Asajj Ventress' story continues in the Dark Disciple novel by Christie Golden! The weekly Skeleton Crew discussion shows have begun and Thomas Rochester joins Mike for the two-episode premiere!

Hyde Street and Hornsby and Halo from Ghost Machine are both high quality and worthy of being picks of the week though they just got edged out.

Jace and Rocky chat about some of their favorite independent titles for the week of November 20, 2024. We get the debut of the family-centric, fast-paced and incredibly fun Rocketfellers from Ghost Machine. Also from Ghost Machine this week, the latest issue shows that although Teriq Geiger may be the most mutated survivor of the Unknown War, he may also be the most human in many ways. Speaking of being human, The Power Fantasy has an incredbile issue showcase just how tragically human, and thus flawed, the superpowered beings are in this story. Department of Truth also explores the idea of being human, but from the perspective of the expecations we can all put on one another and how harmful that can be. Ice Cream explored the world and the inherrent horrors we are responsible for that we are sometimes to blinded to see, or perhaps it is because these horrors have become ubiquitous. Standstill continues to pump out the action, but the latest issue takes some time to develop character as well when we get some clues as to why Ryker may be on his rampage. Join us to learn all bout these titles and more.

Clone Wars Conversations continues with the second part of Season 5 (episodes 6-13)! Dave, Maff & Mike talk in-depth about two arcs in this episode, as their journey on this Clone Wars companion podcast continues! In this episode, the trio discuss the first arc (ep 6-9); where a group of younglings go on a quest to Ilum for their lightsaber (Kyber) crystals with Ahsoka & Yoda and then meet Huyang to help construct them, where they are interrupted by a certain pirate; Hondo! The second arc apparently features George Lucas' favourite Clone Wars episodes (10-13), where a small-statured general goes on a mission with a handful of droids to infiltrate a separatist ship and end up being stranded in the desert known as The Void before finding a curious out of place local. As well as talking about these episodes, Dave, Maff & Mike discuss George Lucas' involvement in the Clone Wars, Huyang's appearance in Ahsoka, droids in Star Wars and more!

Jace and Rocky chat about some of the independent titles for the week of November 13, 2024. String gives us a look inside the life of a young girl who can see attachments between those that have been intimate with each other or have or will murder someone, just as we as the readers are trying to decide if it is a gift or a curse, she sees a murder string connected to her! The second issue of The Big Burn continues the story of a professional crew trying to steal back their souls from the devil, but the heist may be over before it even gets started when the group is betrayed from within. The debut of Arcbound leans into some familiar science fiction tropes but it's full of action and fun with an infectious art style. Dark Empty Void ramps up both the mystery and the action, but the answers the team exploring the black hole are getting may not be the ones they want. Speaking of mysteries the detective duo in Huge Detective is discovering their mystery may go much deeper than expected, while the heist on the prison planet in Life has also hit a snag when that crew discovers just what has been done to the prisoners incarcerated there and the horror that comes with that discovery. Plus, the debut of G.I. Joe has a shocking final page that has to be seen to be believed. Join us as we talk about all these titles plus a whole lot more!

This week Mike speaks with Louise; the second alter from the Doug Vincent System to appear on GCC, to explain how the alters within the system have used the MBTI Personality Test to better understand themselves and their roles. In more detail, Louise starts by speaking about her “awakening” within the system, before answering some questions from you (the lovely GCC audience) about DID, including alters “switching” control over the body. Louise then provides an in-depth explanation about what the MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) is, how it was created, what the letters actually mean and how their system utilizes it for the different alters.Mike also took the test and is a Protagonist (ENFJ-A), with the “Diplomat” role and his strategy is “People Mastery” – he explains his results in more detail and he & Louise discuss what they mean. Louise also prepared a quiz for Mike where he guesses which Star Wars and Marvel characters would have what type of MBTI personality – listen to the entire conversation to hear the results! To do the personality test yourself, completely for free, visit www.16personalities.com Louise mentioned the book Gifts Differing: Understanding Personality Type by Isabel Briggs Myers & Peter B. Myers.

Jace and Rocky talk about a few of the independent titles for the week of November 6, 2024. The search for clones who can turn into psychopaths at any moment continues in Skin Police, but we meet the clone rebellion who have a much better way to deal with clones "poping". Exit City is the final entry into the Underworld Universe at Mad Cave and it might be the most compelling yet as we are introduced to a pair of detectives with very different tactics in dealing with crime in this futuristic setting. We are told the line between cops and criminals in Exit City is razor thin, we can't wait to see how that plays out. Something is Killing the Children gets a #0 issue that sets the groundwork for the first few arcs of the series that introduced Erica Slaughter. Finally, Kill All Immortals continues it's action-packed run with a shockign cliffhanger that you have to read to believe. The betrayal, emotion and consequences in this book are second to none!

Jace and Rocky chat about their favorite independent titles for the week of October 30, 2024. Ghost Machine is here with another two fantastic titles, the most heartfelt issue of Redcoat to date and perhaps of the entire Ghost Machine era. Meanwhile, Devour gives us a horrifying glkimpse into Hyde St that is that much more terrifying in it's realism. Meanwhile Knights vs Samurai continues the historical narrative with tons of bloody action and we get the second of the Underworld Universe titles from Mad Cave with Hour of the Wolf #1.

Jace and Rocky dive into a great week of independent books with another installement of the Horizon Experiment, this time it's the Sacred Damned focusing on an exorcist from Middle Eastern Culture. Also the fun and nostalgic Grommets continues with a wild party that gets out of hand, Rook Exodus concludes it's first arc and the feel of hte book shift slightly with seemingly embracing his role as a warden and committing to saving the planet Exodus. Meanwhile, Power Fantasy, the superb character drama that harkens back to the cold war with meta-powered beings as an analog for weapons of mass destruction shows some origins of those beings in it's thrid issue as well as showcasing a timeline for upcoming events. Standstill is as fast paced as ever with it's unique presentation of double page spreads for the entireity of the issue and we love the furiosu pace of the action contrasted with the slow-burn of the mystery that is being revealed. Also, Tin Can Society is unveiling a mystery of its own with great character work as well, with the once tightly knit eponymous group trying to learn to trust one another again. Join the guys as they talk about all these titles and more!

Jace and Rocky talk about some of the independents books for the week of October 16, 2024. We have the end of the Catalyst War in Radiant Black and it is just as action-packed and balanced with emotion as you would expect, an absolute amazing comic. Falling In Love On the Path to Hell continues to surprise with an interesting mix of emotion and action in it's own right. The new volume of Witchblade is also amazing as the creative team is managing to honor the classic origins and touch points of the character while introducing new ideas and concepts to make it feel llike something new. Destro is a fitting finale before leading into G.I. Joe and Vicarious is of to a fantastic start. Join us to hear about these books and more. Plus Jace gives a rundown on some other titles you may want to be on the lookout for!

Jace and Rocky are back to chat about some of the independent titles for the week of October 9, 2024. We get a second printing of the first issue of Life from DSTLRY and #1 hits stands as well, action packed with an intriguing heist story set on a planet where life sentences are taken very literally, the story is told from two very different perspectives. Meanwhile, the Scarlett mini-series finishes up and it feels like her story will continue in the pages of G.I. Joe. Geiger gives us a set up issue as the forces of Vegas still are in pursuit of the titular character. Minor Arcana continues to showcase the excellent character work of Jeff Lemire, while Chip Zdarksy is also providing excellent character interplay in his very meta title Public Domain.

Clone Wars Conversations continues with the third & final part of Season 4 “Battle Lines” (episodes 19-22)! Dave, Maff & Mike have split this season up into 3 so the trio can discuss certain arcs and individual episodes of The Clone Wars in more detail to make this Clone Wars companion podcast even better! In this episode, the trio discuss the 4-part arc with episodes Massacre, Bounty, Brothers and Revenge. These episodes are centred around the Nightsisters of Dathomir, Savage Opress finding (Darth) Maul and Asajj Ventress finding her way in the universe, while Obi-Wan is pursuing on Maul & Opress. Dave, Maff & Mike talk about these episodes that are far more mature than prior episodes, while delving deeper into the involved characters & galactic events, all with some lore/trivia sprinkled in!
