We had only lightly discussed comic books before after discovering our mutual interest, but we really get into it during this convo. It's a little disgusting. If you don't understand what we are talking about, hope ya'll pick up some gems, then hopefully eventually end up picking up a couple issues. Some really good nerd shit this ep. COMICS. GAMES.
