Host Anthony Desiato sits down with the enigmatic owner of Acme Comics, Jermaine Exum (aka Lord Retail), for an epic trilogy event. In the finale, Jermaine reveals customer confusion over the "Death of Superman" 30th anniversary special, shares what's on (or rather what's NOT on) his dating profile, and tees up the future of the Lord Retail brand.
The podcast returns with "For All Seasons," a quarterly farewell event, in 2023. My Comic Shop History concludes next year!
