00:15:08 – We check in with Augie’s Picks of the Week, which boiled down to Daredevil #88 and Uncle Scrooge #357 and guess what? Uncle Scrooge #357 won. But we do get some ultra geek typography nitpicks on Daredevil #88.
00:26:03 – Conor and Ron were surprised by the fact that the change in the artists on The Flash #3 made the issue really good!
