This week, Tony welcomes back man whose middle name might legally be changed to podcaster, Dave Horrocks. Co-Founder of the Comics in Motion network.  This week, the go deep into TWO books on one show. First up: A History of Violence (Click here for the movie review with Chris and Dave) John Wagner, Vince Locke It's just another quiet day in small-town, USA, until a couple of wanted killers walk into Tom McKenna's diner looking for trouble. When Tom gives them more than they bargained for, he and his family are thrust into the kind of white-hot media spotlight that attracts a lot of attention - and questions about Tom's past. ls he really an easygoing small town guy, or is there something more? AND Pulp Ed Brubaker, Sean Phillips (Artist), Jacob Phillips (Colors) A gorgeous original graphic novel from the best-selling creators of Kill Or Be Killed, My Heroes Have Always Been Junkies and Criminal. Max Winters, a pulp writer in 1930s New York, finds himself drawn into a story not unlike the tales he churns out at 5 cents a word - tales of a wild west outlaw dispensing justice with a six-gun. But will Max be able to do the same, when pursued by bank robbers, Nazi spies, and enemies from his past? One part thriller, one part meditation on a life of violence, Pulp is unlike anything the award-winning team of Brubaker and Phillips have ever done. A celebration of pulp fiction, set in a world on the brink. And another must-have hardback from one of comics most-acclaimed teams. (less) Comics in Motion is now a Humble Bundle Partner.
