This is Comic Geeks Peak, episode 679, indie spotlight on Underground by Jeff Parker and Steve Lieber, The God Machine. In this episode, you'll also be hearing from the other Greeks, Brian Deemer, Jamie D. Pants and Shane, I think, are all in, if not all, these segments, a few of them.

This episode is sponsored by librarybinding, librarybinding.com, where you can get your

versions of hard covers and leatherbound trades and all kinds of collections, all on your own whim.

If you are tired of seeing collections coming out from the publishers that are missing issues

You can go to library binding.com and you can send them your comics and they'll bind

them up into these awesome hardcover collections.

Minimum price, $15, just $15.

They're great people, and you can go to thecomicforms.com,

where we have a whole separate forum on library binding, where we have a whole bunch

of listeners who have made the jump and they have all kinds of photos and they show just the

different ways that they're binding their their comics to have forever and ever.

So librarybinding.com.
