Happy Holidays from Because Comics! In this festive episode, Jay and Mike suggest comics that make good gifts, specifically "Old Man Logan" and "Superman: Secret Identity," and then discuss "Brave and the Bold" #148, where Batman and Plastic Man team up to save Christmas (XMas?) from the evils of cigarette smuggling! And for today's game segment, we play "Super-Mundane," and ask who would be the best - and worst - Secret Santa?
