THAT COMIC SMELL: Intention Fails And Best Of 2021

The latest episode is online now.

From the website:

"This time around the crew are talking Intention Fails and their best of 2021.

We revisit, what has now become a tradition for TCSPod. The Intention Fails, the comics that we have bought but never got round to reading. We each picked 3 (or four in some cases) titles at the start of last year but did we manage to read them all? We then went on to choose another three (or more) to read through 2022. Have alisten to see if you’ve read them already or if you want to buy them up and read along with the folks here.

We then make our way onto the comics that lit up our 2021 and made it to our top 3, along with some honourable mentions.

Get us on…
