The New England Society Of Geeks 78: “The Monthly Comicscast For February”

The New England Society of GeeksThis week, the Derrick and Cosmic Comic Guru Dario are joined by the World’s Greatest Sidekick Paul for a discussion about comics, and comic-related topics in the Monthly Comicscast.

The unique aspect? None of the hosts have any new comics to review, so instead, they delve into a lot of comic-adjacent entertainment, including Superman & Lois, WandaVision, and a planned Superman reboot from JJ Abrams.

And with a lack of new comics, the group does an Off the Shelf Review of DC Comics’ New 52 introduction of Justice League Dark.

Turn it up!
