As always, nice job, Jason.

I think there is interest in Iron Man.  The first two weeks of the Iron Man 2, my dinky little comic podcast had it's highest numbers ever - they since have normalized again.  Have you noticed that on 11 O'Clock or iFanboy - is there a jump in your numbers (without going into details) when a big comic book movie comes out.

 I don't have the long term stats - just curious on if it caused a bump up in your stats.

I enjoy these articles immensely by Mr Wood.

How much does the fight for 'shelf space' play in offering or perhaps flooding the market for comics?  I believe this has been an important factor in consumer goods, such soda, toothpaste

It was fun - I'm on board.  

Liked the oral history bit at the end too.

For every door that shuts a new one opens.  Good luck on your job search.

Never thought I would ever hear . . .

@calebthetimetraveler  You didn't enjoy MAD Magazine as a kid either, I assume?  It is called satire and full protected free speech, at least in the U.S.

Not only a DC bias, this writer is obviously anti-bald with all this hair talk!  But I enjoyed the picture of the dragon.   Looking forward to the secret history of the spinner rack as a torture device.

I thought the picture of the spine was a misplaced Interweb ad at first.

Generally speaking, I don't think most old comics are good as well, but it's like respecting your elders and listening to old stories, some you have heard many times already and you know with a few more embellishments, it could be really great.  You see some old stereotyping that comes at you like a 2x4 across the head.
 
Good luck with your health issue.

Like the Urasawa being recognized for his work on Pluto and 20th Century Boys. 
 
Good year for comics. 
 
Sonic the Hedgehog is the best kids comic out there!  So it goes.
