Christian, Agent Starling and Captain EO are joined by friend of The Bladtcast and creator of "The Alternate" Jeff Winstead to discuss the first six issues of his comic, influences, the state of the industry today and comics in general.

Christian chats with author Matt Singer about his book "Marvel's Spider-Man : From Amazing to Spectacular (The Definitive Comic Art Collection)" followed by a post-game chat with creator of "The Alternate" Jeff Winstead.

Christian is joined in studio by Katie Daryl to talk about Season 8 of World's Greatest Tribute Bands, Wednesdays at 10pm Eastern on AXS TV. Then, he asks Captain EO for his dream-team super hero line-ups, a question he then poses to Jeff Winstead, who also explains the difference between Secret Wars and Crisis on Infinite Earths.

Christian is joined for the entire episode by comic book creator, and comic book fan Jeff Winstead, who comiserates about the difficulties of comic book collecting in the mid-80s when you grew up in a rural area, their first comics, mutual appreciation for Spider-Man comics of that era, and how they both were disenfranchised in the early 90s by the compressed storytelling of the artist-driven work of that era, especially compared to the strong writing that preceded it, sharing some favorite creators and storylines. Jeff talks about creating his own comic book series, "The Alternate", and shares his thoughts on FX's "Legion" series and the film "Logan", with an unexpected detour into corn subsidies along the way
