With apologies to R.E.M., it’s the end of the comic book year as we know it, and we feel fine. We have the FINAL results of our Best of 2016 Survey that we’ve been running the last few weeks. The votes have been counted, and we are back in the studios to go over the final tallies.

But we couldn’t do this without some help! We brought in friend-of-the-show Don Leibold, who is building a comic book discussion group in Milwaukee known as The Comic Book Panel. Don knows his comics and even took part in our 2016 survey. Don brought along a list of his top 10 favorite comics of 2016 – many of which we spoke about on the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER! last year, but even some that didn’t cross any of our paths. (That’s just another good excuse to go down to Clint’s Comics looking for some new comics!)

We do get some current comic talk in on the show, as Savage #3 came out this week from Valiant. People, this is an awesome book that you need to be reading.

We would love to hear your comments on the show. Let us know what you’ve been reading or watching this week. Contact us on our website, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or by email. We want to hear from you! As always, we are the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER! and we hope you enjoy the show.
