Welcome to "The Good, the Bad and the Issue," a weekly in-depth look at completed comic book storylines hosted by Cody Garnett and Derek Carls.
Each week, the two of us will take on different roles. One, the snarky comic shop dude that hates all the things you love and needs to let you know it. The other, a total mark obsessed with the comic, gushing about the good and oblivious to the faults and flaws.
We’ll leave our fates in the hands of the dice gods with a roll off. Winner gets to pick their position. The other is forced to take on the opposing view. What follows should be an insightful discussion or, more likely, a heated debate focused on the good, the bad, and the issue.
