We have an addiction to the writing of Brian K. Vaughan. But something is different about his writing this time, with Fiona Staples at the helm of art, this story really comes alive.  So what happens when you put Romeo and Juliet in space, and the kids survive, with Game of Thrones like plot lines and death, with a Star Wars like view of the fantastic?  You get Saga! May be even the best book we read all year!

It's near Halloween and you know what that means? We got to get spoopy. Zombies are everywhere. But that isn't quite PC so it's Walkers. Or does that just sound cooler. Regardless we talk about Robert Kirkman's Walking Dead before it became AMC's hit number 1 show of all time.  What do you think? What were your thoughts and feelings reading the story? And what's better: Zombies, Werewolves or Vampires? Tell us on twitter- @ComicTradesPod

Now working on the North East bracket. Amazing Spider-Man. Swamp Thing. Wes Craven. Michael Keaton. Who makes the movie? Who destroys the movie?  This might be a tough one.
