We’ve reach Season 2 of Twin Peaks, where we really start to experience the show’s surreal and quirky reputation full stop. Did it maintain our interest? Or did our excitement from Season One wane? What exactly the heck do we think is going on? All that and a damn fine cup of Talk Nerdy complete…
Writer Kelly Thompson joins us again as we give her the “Best Friend of the Show” designation! We talk about her original graphic novel, Heart in a Box, reflect on her first year and the upcoming arc of Jem, and talk about some of the big goings on that happened the prior weekend at the…
Patrick & Myles Pick: {P}: So I figured instead of Myles and myself fighting each month with who gets to pick IDW’s “Jem and the Holograms” by Kelly Thompson and Sophie Campbell as their favorite comics, I would provide a place for us to settle our differences, and both gush over it. Issue #6 is…

Myles: Archie’s brand renaissance continues this week with Chilling Adventures of Sabrina #3 by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and Robert Hack, and Jack Morelli.
