• It's the start of the new month, which means it's time for the WCPE Book Club. This month, we are looking at Fantastic Four: Unstable Molecules from 2003. Writer James Strum and artist Guy Davis pay homage to the Lee-Kirby issues of Fantastic Four, while adding on a new layer that makes it feel like the next great American novel. For this discussion, we are joined by loyal friend of the podcast Terry LaCaze.
• Stick around to the very end to find out about next month's selection for WCPE Book Club. It's a super pick, and a new collection of it is now on sale this week.
