In this episode what was a review of the Black Panther by Jack Kirby became instead a talk about mortality, getting old, Alpha Flight, Halloween, Omega Men, and so much more. We will review that book next time but for now sit back and enjoy two old guys talk about how time goes by so fast. Andy is shaken by the death of one of his favorite artists and creators and his love of the Legion and needs to talk about it.
