INFORMAL

The most heinous term you could call a woman in the 21st Century (Try it. . . see what happens.)

Yeah, you dont want any part of that. Anyway . . .

So while we sit in for another week at home, 3rd Degree Byrne pulls out a little known Byrne book from 1994.

Under the Dark Horse Legend banner, we get BABE!

That is right. John Byrne put out few creator owned titles at Dark Horse Comics back in the day and BABE was the most unusual. Wanna know why? Listen in as guest Intern Kirk Greefield joins the usual Byrneouts, Tim Elliott and Brian Hughes and they just might tell you what is so different about BABE.

Now, here is a little way back moment: Friend of the show, Michael Carlile writes a blog called The Crapbox of Son Of Cthulhu

Mike covered this very issue of BABE a few years back and had some in-depth analysis. Please check out his coverage here: http://crapboxofcthulhu.blogspot.com/2016/01/the-fairer-sex-part-x-babe-1.html

Dont have this issue? Kirk provides instructions and warnings on how to read this book for free, so heed his words.

Now, grab a Frozen Margarita (A favorite drink of Lucille Ball, another bright Red Head), sit back and enjoy as 3rd Degree Byrne Covers BABE #1.
