And This Is Why I Love Comics Podcast! artwork

Join the podcast that critics call "A burst of fun and hypnotic." We’ve also been called “opinionated old men talking comic books” and neither are wrong!

This podcast is a conversation between friends who love comic books! Join Andy and Mike and some guest hosts as we explore growing up in the 80’s and what it’s like to love comics now! We talk comics, having comics with kids, comic conventions and surround it by picking issues to read and review!
