A Comic Show: The View From Half Black/Half Hispanic America
The boys from A Comic Shop in Florida look through tomorrow's comics and dive into Flashpoint #4 and its spinoffs, leap onto Scott Snyder's Gates Of Gotham where they see a lot of future Batman, and his Severed from Image.
Punisher #1 gets a lot of love as does Moon Knight #1 as he creates a West Coast Avengers single handedly, how the new Ultimate Spider-Man is as alliterative as the old and whether or not Ben Reilly is Uncle Ben, and they bring on a half black/half hispanic customer of theirs to read the comic and comment as well. God bless thir American arses.
