Finally, the picks of the week. Alex says, “Definitely Invasion of the Body Snatchers, though Gundam Build Fighters is fantastic as well and is definitely worth picking up.” Blaine says, “I agree that Invasion of the Body Snatchers is the best of this bunch.”
They did a decent job with Batman: The Killing Joke, which is (apparently) an extremely controversial book. DC seem to do a much more consistent job with their animated movies than their live-action ones.
I’m very curious about The Lobster.
