E&E #002 - Anatomy of a Collection, pt 1

Alan's Eyes & Ears #002 - Anatomy of a Collection, pt 1

In this second episode of this new podcast endeavor, Alan talks about EVERY comic in his collection. After he defines "collection," and to be honest, that part of the conversation is a bit embarrassing got the poor professor.

And he actually only talks about the comics up to and including Batgirl & the Birds of Prey, but this mini-series of episodes will EVENTUALLY cover EVERY comic in his collection.  

 This episode covers comics filed between 3-D Zone and Batgirl & the Birds of Prey. Titles discussed include (but are not limited to) Baker Street, Alter Ego, Ambush Bug ,& The Adventures of Mr. Crypt & Baron Rat.

How embarrassing is this discussion to the professor?
