Thanks to Fire & Water patron Michael Crouch for suggesting this topic! Shag, Siskoid and Paul discuss the late 1980s series The Maze Agency! Created by Mike W. Barr, and illustrated by a young Adam Hughes, it was a true “whodunit” mystery series. We discuss the art, the mysteries, and the realistic and developing relationship between the two protagonists. Along the way, we also share its publication history and mini-bios for Barr and Hughes. Come join us – the game is afoot!

Hello there. Your pod-catcher isn’t on the fritz, this is actually a new episode of Give Me Those Star Wars. Ryan Daly and the Irredeemable Shag reunite to discuss the Disney+ miniseries OBI-WAN KENOBI more than a year after its release on the streaming service. Sorry, but it took that long for Shag to watch the show, and it took that long for Ryan to find his joy in Star Wars again.
