After last week's Fandome episode, we got to thinking about how unexcited we were by all of the trailers and big announcements. But you know what does make us excited? Good comics. To wash away the bad taste of unimpressive trailers, we decided to discuss evergreen stories featuring some of the characters who have been rising up in pop culture thanks to movies, videogames, etc. First up? The Suicide Squad and Wonder Woman. Join us as we talk about what we mean by "evergreen," and as we discuss the Suicide Squad and Wonder Woman stories that will satisfy your soul.
