Check out our newest episode: Episode 9 : Invasion 2 : Battleground Earth!
Still ongoing... The Invasion.
Invasion was a DC Crossover from 1988.... In fact, it was the first real crossover after I started collecting comics..... as I mentioned on last episode.
Still leaving this note out there for you guys: If you want FULL coverage on Invasion and all of the Invasion crossovers, check out friend of the show... FIRST STRIKE: THE INVASION! PODCAST
In this show, the Canadian hosts Siskoid and Bass cover each book of the series and every book that it crossed over in to. Be sure to check out our friendly Canadians podcast....
First this episode I look at the Invasion crossover on CW's tv shows (which involved Supergirl, The Flash, Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow.. more or less)... Listen in as I talk about what I loved about it and it's (sadly) many flaws.....
Then at 12 minutes in to the show, I look at the main book, Invasion #2
