Episode 48: DCNu in Review

Well, Lushes, the industry can’t get enough of talking about this DC relaunch, and neither can The Rack Pack! We begin with Allan whining about the demise of OMAC. This leads us into a book-by-book follow up to Episode 42, where we look at the DC books we’re still reading to see how they’re holding up. But where is the stupidity? Dont worry, Lushes, the ignorance begins as we once again unneccesarily pit characters against one another in another installment of “Vs.” Drink up!

Episode 45: Pow, Pow!

Happy Holidays, Lushes! We’re getting into the season a little early by discussing ways to blend comics and Christmas. In the true spirit of Christmas, we also give “gifts” to creators, characters, and fans. To top it all off, we give you ideas for future gifts by doing an installment of “What Are You Reading?” It’s Super-pets, snarky observations, cynicism, and all around stupidity. What else did you expect? Drink up, Lushes!

Episode 41: Super Team Fantasy Draft Fun Times Hurray! 2011

Yes, Lushes, NFL fever has gripped the Rack Pack! Unfortunately, only one of the members of the Pack actually watches or cares about football. But that’s okay, because we still have a fantasy draft for you. In true Rack Pack fashion, we’ve decided to make fantasy drafts of the worst super-teams we can imagine, and boy do they suck! Afterward, we do another round of “What Are You Reading?” Drink up, Lushes!
