Comic Book Fever by George Khoury

Tony is finally taking his PMP exam this week so think good thoughts, Team GATES!!! 

This week, George is joined by author George Khoury.  His latest book, Comic Book Fever, is a celebration of the comic books published between 1976 and 1986. It is scheduled to be released June 22, 2016 and is available for pre-order at www.twomorrows.com. Let's face it, even if you are not an avid comic book reader like both Georges, you probably remember the days of checking out what was on the spinner racks of your local convenience stores. The historic and nostalgic factors make this book worth the price of admission. Want to sample some of George's other work while you wait? True Brit: Celebrating the Comic Book Artists of England and The Extraordinary Works of Alan Moore are among the titles currently available using the Amazon link at www.georgeandtony.com. "Like" Comic Book Fever by George Khoury on Facebook and tell him George and Tony sent you!

The Doctor Is In - Part 1: Dr. Mara Wood

We keep hearing all the other shows talking about a sports game where some broncos played against some panthers and all the accompanying commercials. Anyone can do that. This week, Tony is in the penalty box while George welcomes Dr. Mara Wood back to the show. She went by "Mara Wood" when she appeared on episode 85. This time, George and Mara discuss her dissertation then have some fun talking comics, talking Shojo, talking Star Wars, and talking podcasts. Mara regularly appears on The Missfits, Talking Shojo, and the new Legendary Runs, all of which may be found on iTunes and http://talkingcomicbooks.com.

We are trying to grow the show in 2016 and we cannot do it without you. Please share and subscribe, especially on iTunes. Introduce your hairdresser to podcasting and help make the world a better place. Thank you for listening.
