Today, join me as we experiment with an all new format. We are introducing what you will come to know as the Rob Topsy. With the Rob Topie, we examine a single body of work, a comic, a movie, a show.

We dissect it and study that art and its historical significance, its relevance.

There's going to be a whole bunch of categories that we explore during the Robtopsie.

But it's not called the Robtopsie as much as it's called the Robcast during this issue.

So consider that this is a very special, special collector's edition,

a pilot, if you will, where we called the entire thing the robcast

before we decided to call it the Robtopsie.

And today's Robtopsie is about to commence on the 1970s Fantastic Four

from Marvel. Join me on a very special edition of Robeservations.

Hey, everybody, welcome to a very special edition of Robeservations. What makes this episode so special

is that we are introducing a new format, a format we're going to play with, and we're going to

air infrequently here on Rob Observations, which deviates slightly from this journey that I've

been taking you on since I was pulling

comic books off the spinner rack.

This format is called the Rob Topsy.

It is the perfect format.

We danced around with some different names.

At one point I announced a different name for this format.

At this point, it's going to be part of the Robeservations family.

We're airing basically what amounts to a pilot episode today.

It is the Robtopsie.

What happens on the Robtopsie, the mission statement of the Robtopsie, is that we take one isolated item, a comic book, a comic book issue, a comic book series, a comic book stories.
