The Inconquerable, number 324, October 2016.

Welcome back everybody to The Incomparable.

I'm your host, Jason Snell.

This is a special edition of our comic book club.

We, this time, though, rather than talking about one specific comic,

we're going to talk about lots of comics. There's a service that's made available by Marvel Comics called Marvel Unlimited. It's a pretty good deal. They have a $10 a month plan, but they've also

got a $69 a year plan, and you get to read as much as you like from a catalog of, they say

more than 17,000 at this point, Marvel Comics.

I've been a subscriber for a few years now because I realize that you can read like a very

small number of comics, like 20 comics, and it pays for itself if you buy by the year.

So what we thought we would do, and I was inspired a little bit by a conversation I had with

my co-host from Upgrade, Mike Hurley, who was wondering about getting into comics. We've also heard this from some other people. Like, if I got Marvel Unlimited, what should I read? Because there's 17,000 comics to choose from. So I've assembled a panel of comic book readers who are going to help me, in draft form, to suggest things that you could read on Marvel Unlimited, or if you'd prefer to buy or go back and get back issues, you could do that too.

But I think Marvel Unlimited is not brought to you by Marvel Unlimited.

I do think it's a pretty good deal if you think you're going to read more than 20 comics in a year. Anyway, joining me, and I'm going to introduce them in the order

in which they're going to pick as randomly selected by random.org. First, Lisa Schmeiser, hi.

Hi. Hi, how are you? I was not expecting to go first. You win by a long shot. Random.org

likes you and wants you to pick first, so get ready for that. All right. All right. I will. Picking second will be Monty, Ashley.

Hi, Monty.

Hi, Jason.

Random.org likes you okay.

Well, thanks, random.org.

You're all right, too.
