After management scolds the guys, co-host Nickel starts things out by pitching the most inappropriate but erotic contest in the podcast's short history.  We try to go through all the shows on the Musings of a Geek Podcast Network and fail miserably (sorry shows that we missed).  Marvel Fact Files, Scott Snyder's new upcoming series "Wytches", CGC (graded comic books) and the upcoming East of West One-Shot Encyclopedia/Atlas, all get some discussion (41 minutes worth) before we get to the bi-weekly Walking Dead Trade Paperback Disucssion where we look at TPB #5 (Issues 25-30).  After discussing the gruesome events of the aforementioned Walking Dead books, we move on to the barely anticipated and unaptly named “Rapid-Fire Review” segment.  The books on the list from August 13 include Crossed Badlands #59, Hexed #1, Batman #34, Batman Eternal #19, Birds of Prey #34, Harley Quinn #9, New Suicide Squad #2, My Little Pony Friendship is Magic #22, Sex Criminals #7, Starlight #5, All-New X-Men #30, Amazing Spiderman #5, Amazing X-Men #10, Captain America #23, Fantastic Four #8, Inhuman #3, Nightcrawler #5, Original Sin #7, Spider-Man 2099 #2, United States of Murder Inc. #4, Wolverine #11, Wolverine #11, Wolverine and the X-Men #7, X-Force #8, X-Men #18, Armor Hunters #3, and Thief of Thieves #23.  After sharing their thoughts on all the books we quickly recap the best and worst choices for the week, and the ongoing plus/minus stats.  As always, we look ahead to the following week's books (released August 20, 2014) before calling it a night just short of the 3-hour mark.  Ironically, there was some discussion of cutting down to a 1-hour podcast prior to the show...
