Pick of the Week #8 - Hellblazer #215
It's a Christmas miracle! Josh picks Hellblazer #215 as his Pick of the Week, which was a tough decision since this week was full of such great comics. Some of the other comics discussed are Joe Casey's Iron Man, Geoff Johns disappointing work on Green Lantern, and Phil Jimenez's fine art on Infinite Crisis #3. Listener e-mail asks what good indie books should be checked out and the iFanboy boys share their Christmas wishes. Happy Holidays!
