We are glad to have Wade Kapanke, who brought doughnuts and some great questions about the Top Cow Universe.  Josh kicks off the show with a review of the history of National Doughnut Day, and we also review the August solicitations from Top Cow.

On this holiday, we celebrate by reading the Free Comic Book Day story Okie Dokie Donuts from Top Shelf Books.  It is written and drawn by Chris Eliopoulos, known for his webcomic Misery Loves Sherman and his lettering and writing work for Marvel Comics.  How can we resist a donut shop comic on such an important holiday!

If it is June 2011, you can buy a 6-pack of Berserker  issues direct from the Top Cow Store.  Proceeds from sales of this pack will go to Tornado Relief in Joplin, MO.

Music on this episode is “Donut Man” by the Dickies.  Podsafe music courtesy of MusicAlley.  Check them out and buy the track, if you’re so inclined!

Doughnuts this week were from Fosdal Home Bakery in Stoughton, Wisconsin.  Thanks to Wade for picking them up this week!

We have another reading from Free Comic Book Day . . . and you know it’s going to be about Sara Pezzini!  Thanks to Drive Thru Comics for sponsoring these guest appearances!

Thanks, as always to Westfield Comics for their support!
