    Major Spoilers Poll of the Week:
    As I prepare to tackle the last unpacking project in the Major Spoilers HQ – hey, we’ve only been here for the last seven years – I find myself facing a wall of unboxed statues and life-size prop replicas. Something is gonna give in the next three months, which means eBay sales abound!

    In the mean time, with only two options (because this is a black or white, with no shades of gray, and remember a non-vote is the same as a no vote, and that makes the baby jeebus cry) what would you rather have in your comic book themed room?

    What would you rather fill your Nerd-Room=of-Doom with?

    [poll id=”387”]

    DISCUSSION:
    Dr. Peter Coogan returns this week to talk about Nazis as the great foil for comic book heroes of yesterday and today.

      I have been listening to the ongoing kickstarter debate with some interest. I am someone who does enjoy giving money to content creators to further their goals and craft. I have been a VIP Gold member for a long time, and I give to Patreon, subscribe to channels on Twitch, and generally spend money on content creators. I absolutely refuse to contribute to a company that will simply profit from my individual contribution. This is what stocks are for. If a large company wants me to contribute, then I expect a share of the returns. I do not expect this out of Major Spoilers, because I know that my contributions go directly to content and salaries for people I enjoy. Steven is not lining shareholder pockets, and I believe in what he is doing. Therefore he gets my money. a Corporation (without a profit share) will not. That may be hypocritical, but I am ok with that. I think that I am not alone in the way I feel.

      Great discussion on how world war II shaped superhero comics.

      Manga was hugely influenced by the Nuclear bombs and the american occupation. But when I look at the comics of countries like France and Belgium that were actually occupied by the Nazis the influence seems much more subtle. Tintin was actually published during those years. I’ll have to look for some reading on that.

      Guys, you’ve finally done it. While I would happily paint myself a nerd of many stripes, I was never the sort to frequent my local comic shop. I’ve picked up the occasional trade, but that’s been the extent of it.

      And then comes your review for Fight Club 2 #1 – I loved both the book and film, and having been a big fan of Cameron Stewart’s Sin Titulo, this seemed a perfect storm. Cut to the next day, I’ve stepped foot into the local shop, asked about how it all works with respect to reserving a copy, and now my name’s down in their little book to send me a note as soon as the issue drops into the store.

      WHAT HAVE I BECOME??! This is entirely your fault.

        That’s accurate. :)

        And welcome. Did you get your accordion?

          Thank you, and I certainly did – but is this accompanying lederhosen really necessary?
