THE FINAL EPISODE OF COMICS SHOULD SMELL GOOD!!

/

THE FINAL VOYAGE
Five years ago when Sam moved to Seattle and started buying comics from us, who knew the impact his excitement for four color nonsense would have on the Mighty Zanadu. However many hundreds and hundreds of videos later, Comics Should Smell Good has morphed into a hyperbole filled hiccup in your day; something to brighten the mid week blues and remind you about the important things in life--like comics.

Thank you to Will Harris for being the guest monkey who never left; to past comic monkeys Anna and Howard for always stepping in when needed; and to Perry for letting us do pretty much whatever we wanted.

From all us monkeys here at Comics Should Smell Good, we cannot thank each and every single one of you enough for watching us rant about our very favorite thing in the world every Wednesday. Much love to you all and keep it tuned here for the inevitable resurrection!!

The kids are back and they're wearing black (becuase that's how they feel on the inside, lol). Anyway, enough Morrisey, team CSSG is here to get you excited about this week's new comics, not mourn for our eternally damned souls. Thankfully, there are lots of good shinies this week including Chuck Palahniuk's first new work since 2014; death defying inter dimensional escape artists who just might be insane; terrible Super-Villain fathers trying to do the right thing and downbeat boxers looking for luck in all the wrong places. Plus, tonight is the monthly meeting of all things comics, so join us at 6:30 pm for conversation and candy with your fellow Seattle comic readers!!

This is also week three of the Marvel Legacy initiative which includes the most massive issue of Mighty Thor #700!! By Odin, this mag is monstrous!! So stop in and pick up your new shinies to keep you company on this gloriously rainy Wednesday here in Seattle.
