Magic City traded in their sandals, sun, and comics for the Windy City, freezing rain, and PULPS?!?!? Jimmy and Paul took a trip up to Chicago to attend Windy City Pulp and Paper Con, one of the biggest pulps shows in the US. Diving head first into this new world of collectibles was a truly humbling and educational experience. Learning about Detective, Good Girl, Clowns, and famous artists of the time while talking to all the different dealers and vendors provided us with first hand knowledge of how under-appreciated and untapped this poised to explode collectible segment truly is. Picked up a couple of key books and made some friends along the way. Listen in as we discuss our experience and where we think the market is going. Leave a comment below if you are interested in collecting in pulps. https://linktr.ee/MagicCityPodcast Appease the Algorithm Gods! Hit us with a LIKE! Comment and Subscribe!

In the latest BTAS Rewatch, we get our first recurring villain with the Joker's second episode. The episode explores the similarities between the Joker and Batman while giving A Killing Joke vibe with the carnival and amusement park setting.

We always used SuperPro as our gag book to discuss FOMO.

We have another unboxing video! This time, Paul unboxes an early Fantastic Four comic. While putting together a FF run of issues 1-10, Paul is only missing issues 6 & 7. Issue 7 is the first appearance of Kurrgo and it has a “flying saucer” cover. Not a major key issue but an early single digit FF book nonetheless. With this book, only issue 6 is left to complete the 1-10 run. You guys wanna see the run so far? Or, wait until it is complete?
