75 years ago, if you had told us that a guy who runs around in clown makeup stealing jewels would one day become the most iconic supervillain in comics, then we’re afraid we wouldn’t have heard you because we weren’t born yet.

In this very special episode all about The Joker, we take a look back at his first appearance in Batman #1 and then read what has been called the greatest Joker story of all time, Alan Moore’s controversial The Killing Joke. Join us, won’t you?

amfarh-019

Summer is a great time for taking a road trip, but what if you could only select 6 albums to listen to while you do it? That’s the dilemma the gang faces today as they try to draft the perfect road trip playlist to get all their friends into their cars. Categories include Country music, standup comedy albums, and albums that sold over 15 million copies. Along the way, they’ll get to the bottom of pressing issues such as Garth Brooks’s baseball tryout, the best time to be a Weezer fan, and just how white you have to be to like Fleetwood Mac.

Some of My Friends Read Comics 004 – JLA by Grant Morrison


In 1997, frustrated with struggling sales, DC cancelled all four of their Justice League titles and brought the original “Big 7” back to the team for the first time in a decade. But that wasn’t enough, they also brought on superstar writer Grant Morrison to turn the reboot into a huge bestseller.

In this episode of SOMFRC, Vince, Chris, and Kia take a look at JLA #1-4 to see what the hype was all about, compare the JLA to the Avengers, and explore Morrison’s jump from writing counter-cultural indie comics to superhero icons.
