(58:50) - Letters: haiku, polio, many exit emails for Mark, Jonesy doesn’t care anymore, interchangeable white nerds, Marvel’s Paperkeg, #100 drinking game
This is the end. For Mark, anyhow. But let’s talk about this book first.
Barry Allen returns to find his protege has taken the mantle of the Flash? GO.
Once Wally West was just Kid Flash, sidekick to his mentor and friend the Flash, a.k.a. Barry Allen. The death of Barry left Wally the fastest man alive—and the new Flash. Now, somehow, Barry has returned—as a violent and paranoid speedster determined to eliminate what h
How great is that synopsis that it just cuts off? I found it the same in several places!
As announced in the huge #100, this will be Mark’s final episode. No jokes, this is real. Well, there will be jokes during #101, but he won’t be returning to the show. Guy’s an enigma.
This is your chance to email the show and say your final goodbyes to The Former DC Historian™, actor, writer, entrepreneur, and black man. He’s had a good run, no doubt about it. Be sure to tune in and experience his final time reading the letters to close out the show.

The original four hosts meet one [REDACTED] time…? They also celebrate 100 episodes with some memories and audio messages from friends. Later in the show the book club is JLA/Avengers.
(58:10) - Letters: ctcher’s audio thesis, Injustice, #theflap, buying more books, The Flash TV Drinking Game, win columns, Mark pronouncing a ton of names really badly
That fried chicken up there was from an earlier recording when we used to record locally. Ages ago. Mark’s mom cooked that fried chicken for us!
We’re recording the official episode #100 this very Thursday night. We’re not announcing the book club ahead of time, going to spring it on folks during the show. We’ll spring it on the winner of the contest, too. Let’s just say it’s going to be a big show, ya dig?
Not only that, but we’ll have a special announcement during #100 as well that will change Paperkeg forever. No hyperbole.
It’s been a lot of fun doing the podcast and being able to hang out with friends. Not only that, but we’ve made a ton more friends thanks to the show, and really comics in general.
Thanks again for your reviews and spreading the word, it’s great to get letters from brand new listeners we’ve never met before.
Tune in Thursday night to our Twitter for links to the video feed. Also, I’m pretty sure Jonesy still owes someone a headshot.
BREAKING: The 10th person to review us on iTunes gets a SIGNED headshot of @jonesylovesbeer!
You wanna get anthropomorphic up in this? You can barely pronounce it, let’s be honest here. GO.
“Two hundred years ago, Britain lost the Napoleonic War and fell under the thumb of French domination. Gaining independence after decades of civil disobedience and anarchist bombings, the Socialist Republic of Britain is now a small, unimportant backwater connected by railway bridge, steam-powered dirigible, and mutual suspicion to France. When a British diplomat’s murder is made to look like suicide, ferocious Detective Inspector LeBrock of Scotland Yard stalks a ruthless murder squad through the heart of a Belle Epoque Paris, the center of the greatest empire in a world of steam-driven hansom cabs, automatons, and flying machines. LeBrock’s relentless quest can lead only to death, truth … or war.”
Get pumped.
Not only are Dale’s dreams coming to fruition, but you can also hear Jonesy’s ham levels escalating to dangerous levels. Slim will be sitting this show out and handing the hosting reigns from his faltering hands to the VP of Guest Hosting, @dale_a. This is happening. This is real life.
Will Jonesy use this time to his advantage to unleash his true self in an attempt to cease being the least popular host? Will Mark appear more relaxed after being dethroned as the DC Historian? Will Dale jumped out of his window mid-show after getting too stressed out while hosting for the first time in history? He also has to edit it!

At least two hosts of Paperkeg will be appearing at The Comic Book Shop in Delaware to talk books, slippers, dead hands, raquetball, Chris Samnee, running faces, and so much more.
This is our second trip to FCBD at our favorite shop. Beth Corto was there last year. This isn’t a picture of her.
I tried to look up more photos taken at last years event but, good christ, Dale’s Google + page is a mess.
Here is a picture of @pennooch, now a big shot comic reviewer.
Join us, won’t you? We’ll be at a table somewhere in or outside of the shop. Maybe we’ll take a break at the nearest brew-pup, savvy? Oh, also you can win free comics or some such. We think.
