The Incomparable, number 285, January 2016.

Welcome back everybody to The Incomparable. I am your host, Jason Snell. We are here to convene an addition of one of the most venerable of incomparable clubs, the comic book club,

ye old comic book club, joining me to talk about, we're going to read two trades, or we've

already read them, but we're going to recommend that you read them.

Ms. Marvel by G. Willa Wilson, Volume 1 and 2 is what we're going to be discussing.

That's Issues 1 to 11, if you prefer the single issues in paper or digital,

but there are readily available trade paperbacks of Ms. Marvel.

Actually, four volumes, but we're just going to talk about the first two.

We recommend you read them.

We're talking about them because we like them, so you should go read them and come back, perhaps,

and listen to the podcast after you do read them.

And to talk to me about this, joining me for the conversation, are a star-studded group led by,

led by, in my order, first in the order in which I'll introduce them.

Tony Sindelar. Hi, Tony.

I would not have drafted me first. That was a classic first round mistraft. Hello, nerds.

These are just introductions, although I like the way you think that every time I'm introducing a panel on the incomparable, it's really a little draft.

It's not. It's just introducing people. Lisa Schmeiser is out there. I wouldn't do a comic book club without Lisa.

Lisa has been part of a comic book club since the very beginning. Hello.

Hi, this is the best book club ever.

Yeah, it is. It is because we read comics and then we talk about them on a podcast.

Also, joining us for our comic book club, one returning comic book club member,

she was on, I think maybe the last comic book club we did. It's Shannon Sutterth. Hello.
