Zone 4
Four friends engage in in-depth comic related discussion and all around good, fun conversation focused on the world of comics.
 

The crew discuss several TV and Film related headlines from Transformers to Arrow. And Chuck Moore stops by to promote our sponsor, Derby City Comic Con!

Then it's on to random conversation consisting of several topics in lieu of Topic Time.

We also tease what's to come on the next couple of episodes.

Plus, Facebook Shout-Outs, plugs and more!

Welcome back to the Hall of Toys!

This is the special outtakes edition we talked about on the show. All taken from the preshow as we tried to get it together, laughing over the previous night's naming marathon when we failed miserably at coming up with a new name for the show.

Plus just some hilarious discussion that was too good not to share with the world.

We hope you all enjoy this special outtakes episode. Please give us a review on iTunes, send us an email, or leave a comment below!
