Galaktacus assembles to catch up on the nerdy stuff going on in our lives, including tabletop roleplaying games, movie trailers, and comic books! That's right, Galaktacus is invading the comic book stores and laying waste to the spinner rack as we introduce our new segment, Wednesday Warriors. In it, we start the conversation about two specific comics, Kill or Be Killed Vol. 1 by Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips and Batman #21 by Tom King and Jason Fabok. One of these comics is great.

Galaktacus attempts to eschew that "angry nerd" character and celebrate the good, the bad and the weird that comes along with this current golden age of pop culture. So let the devouring begin!
