Tony Wolf joins the roundtable this week for a pre-Batman v Superman discussion, and he brings with him his newest autobiographical comic, 1-800-DEAD-ROBIN, which tells the tale of a young comic fan in the late 80s who set out to kill a teenage boy. We're speaking of course, about Jason Todd, and DC's call-in vote to save the life of the second Boy Wonder, after a brutal beating at the hands of the Joker! Would Batman get there in time?

Its a full house at the roundtable this week to kick off the last episode of Pete's Basement Season 8!

Star Wars takes center stage, as you might have guessed, in the form of not only a spoiler-free review of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, but also Darth Vader Annual 1. Now THIS is why the Sith are feared throughout the galaxy! Some DC and indie books before finishing off with Marvel, and the death of a major character!

Plus a bonus question to our New York Comic Con Contest for an extra 10 chances to win! Pete's buddy Todd from North Carolina sits in with Pete and Ramon at the roundtable. It's a moonshine and pizza kinda night! Read more »
