Welcome to Sellers Points, where long-time friends and comic nerds Russell and Kelley use every episode to tell you about the best in comics and comics adaptations along with their own brand of “award-winning” analysis.
After some scheduling issues, the guys are back! But instead of talking Spider-Man: Homecoming, they’re talkin’ shop. What have Russell and Kelley been reading the last month? What’s been good and worth your hard-earned dollar? What might be worth dropping? Will Russell ever crack a funny one-liner? Prepare to have your jaws left agape (literally) as Sellers Points goes through the spinner racks and deals with the issues.

Welcome to The Sunday Groove, where David Sunday discusses music of all types. David, a self-diagnosed “Music Addict” will guide your journey on a monthly basis. Each episode features a different guest and will discuss different bands that get us excited and passionate. This episode features another one of my best friends, Greg Phillips (one half of Hard Traveling Fan Boys on PTBN Pop). Greg and I both choose 6 albums that formed and transformed our love of music forever. These albums are not the best albums of all time, but albums that stood out to us and mean a lot to us on our Musical Journey of Life. Please contact me @SundayGroovePTB on twitter, or David Sunday on Facebook in the Place to Be Nation Comics page and let me know your thoughts.

This week, Chris and Joel have made another list. This time they each rhyme off their own list of horror films that contain really stupid killers. From giant killer rabbits in Night of the Lepus to a killer bed in Death Bed: The Bed That Eats, the guys have compiled quite an interesting and mostly humorous list of films that probably should not scare you but were totally designed to.
Also, the guys check out new retro releases such as the 1983 classic HERCULES starring Lou Ferrigno, which is out this week from Shout Factory. Finally, there is a new segment on the show as Chris attempts to STUMP JOEL with some random trivia about some of their favorite films.
