The world is once again whining about finding politics in the entertainment. Almost like they haven't been paying attention to anything for years. Oh my gosh, when did all of this politics get into comics? Can't we go back to the good old days when it just wasn't there? Excuse me, I could barely keep a straight face typing that out.

Listen in as Reed Puc, Kamijace, and Adam Williamson stop by to talk about the political nature of comics.

Learn such things as:

  • What do people really mean when they say they don't want politics in their comics?
  • How have comics been a means of representation since the beginning?
  • Who is the best new super hero of the past 20 years?
  • And so much more!

You can find Reed on Twitter @armustdie.

You can find Kamijace on Twitter @kamijacegaming for his personal stuff or @WKCooldown for his podcast's account, and of course the Weekly Cooldown podcast website.

You can find Adam on Twitter @thepariaheffect or on his soon to be coming podcast Boldly Viewing.
