Yeah, the episode title makes no sense, sue me.

This week, we continue our look at Malibu, but before we get to that I talk about an exciting update to Collectorz.com Comic Collector software.  4.2 was released yesterday, and a very minor change makes me major happy.

Then we enter the Drawerbox with talk about:

• Firearm
• Rune
• The Solution
• Night Man
• Break-Thru
• Strikeback!

And because I started itching for something other than just Malibu, I also talk about:

• Anne Rice’s The Mummy or Ramses the Damned (Millennium Comics)
• Hero Alliance (Innovation Comics)
• Shades of Gray Comics and Stories (Lady Luck Ltd / Caliber’s Tapestry)

Be sure to look for the forum over at thecomicforums.com and give me your feedback on this or any other episode!
