| JLA/JSA: Virtue, Vice and Very Full Plates | 22 déc. 2025 | 01:26:26 | |
Text us and tell us what you want us to review next!! It’s Thanksgiving at the Hall of Justice! Andy and Mike pull up a chair with the JLA and JSA to dig into Virtue and Vice — the Johns/Pacheco one-shot that serves up heaping helpings of heroism, sin, and cosmic family drama. We talk superhero family dynamics, the power (and pitfalls) of virtue, and why every good crossover feels like a slightly awkward holiday dinner. There’s laughter, gratitude, and at least one heated debate about who would let someone put a memorial in your yard. Because in the end, we’re thankful for comics, chaos, and the friends who keep us reading.

Text us and tell us what you want us to review next!! A little late, a little weird, and totally worth it — Andy gets personal, Mike gets festive, and somehow Star Wars sneaks in.

Find out how Mike handles the holidays. There is Star Wars talk, Kickstarter talk of DC Heroes, Voltron, DC United and more!
