Under the Comic Covers
Under the Comic Covers ends where it began four years ago, with The Walking Dead. We found it fitting and appropriate for this book to be the final issue we dive into.

Under the Comic Covers has the distinct pleasure of talking about two fantastic issues of two fantastic books in this episode. We open with The Walking Dead #174, giving us our best look yet at Negan's inner-self as well as giving us, the readers, some well earned closure for a couple of characters. We then move on to Paper Girls #18, where we get some much needed exposition which completely alters our view of the various players in this particular story.

info_outline 181: Black Science #33Under the Comic Covers
Under the Comic Covers dives head first into the Eververse this week as we talk about Rick Remender's incredible sci-fi masterpiece, Black Science #33. Yes, we fan-boy/girl the hell out of this book, and specifically this issue... but dag-nabbit, it's worth the adulation!

Under the Comic Covers is back this week to tackle three fantastic books; The Walking Dead #173, Paper Girls #17, and Royal City #7. Our apologies for the delay in our coverage of The Walking Dead and Paper Girls, it was all Mr. Blahg's fault.

This week, Under the Comic Covers has three amazing issues to go over. First, we finish out the latest arc with Saga #48... we then travel to a more frontier-like planet with the western themed Copperhead #15... and finally, we discuss a literally explosive issue of Wayward #24.
info_outline 178: They're Not Like Us #16Under the Comic Covers
Under the Comic Covers is always happy to welcome back a book that hasn't released a new issue in a while... They're Not Like Us #16 brings us back to a San Francisco filled with young "gifted" people and begins it's final three issue push.
info_outline 177: Black Science #32; Royal City #6Under the Comic Covers
This week, Under the Comic Covers dives head first into the Eververse with Black Science #32 and gets some heavy emotion with Jeff Lemire's Royal City #6. Two great titles... two great issues... two fun chats.
info_outline 176: The Walking Dead #172; Manifest Destiny #31; Paper Girls #16Under the Comic Covers
Under the Comic Covers is very pleased to discuss three great books in what was a fantastic week for comics. First up, we talk about The Walking Dead #172, giving us one hell of a cliffhanger. We move on to the 19th century and delve into Manifest Destiny #31. Finally we travel through time once again and land in the year 2000 as we have a confused chat about Paper Girls #16.
info_outline 175: Saga #47; Rat Queens Special: Orc Dave #1Under the Comic Covers
This week, we go Under the Comic Covers of Saga #47, where we learn quite a bit more about someone's past, and Rat Queens Special: Orc Dave #1... which we were very pleasantly surprised by.
info_outlineUnder the Comic Covers delves into new mysteries and newly answered questions in our coverage of Revival #20, the Image rural noir title by Tim Seely and Mike Norton. Who is that man at the end, and why is Em jumping with Jesus on the cover? These are but two of the many questions that we pose.
We also bring ourselves current with Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staple's remarkable series Saga. Volume 3 is an amazing look at relationships both new and old and sets the stage for what will be next to follow... and we will get that return in 2 weeks. Make sure you are caught up for what will be a most anticipated return.
Plus, we answer your emails and check in with our favorite comic virgin Rachael in this week's installment of "What is Rachael Reading?"
