  1. Really great podcast. I learned so much. The only comic book I’ve ever been into was The Archies when I was a kid. I really did love those books. Looking forward to more podcasts.

  2. Wow. Trina Robbins knows how to smack a troll down! There are bad aspects to sharing those attacks online (I think some of those trolls just do it for the ‘fame”), but the chance that they might go viral is very high, not only shedding light on the problem but also finding their way to someone who can do something about it (like what happened with Felicia Day and Destructoid).

    CJ, you might want to get your hands on the graphic novel Green River Killer: A True Detective Story by Jensen and Case. I think you mentioned on The Bloodcast that you liked true crime procedurals, and that novel is probably the best crime and consequence story I’ve read. I think you might like it.

    Loved episode 1, and looking forward to more. :-)

  3. Awesome, CJ! Let me know what you thought of it when you get a chance to read it :-)

    • I’m loving the Green River Killer! I started reading it last night. My boyfriend is doing a play so I curled up in bed with the book and read myself to sleep. Section two tonight! I really dig it. Thanks so much for the recommendation.
