In honor of gay pride month, we discuss how "out and proud" we are (and

Steve, Brett and Eric discuss relationship woes, then dive right in and talk about many, many comics. If you haven't read the most recent issues of Midnighter, Fables, All-Star Superman, Uncanny X-Men, X-Factor, Justice League, or Countdown, and you don't share Brett's enthusiasm for getting spoiled, look out! Your CBQ hosts also speculate which character in the X-Mansion is most likely to have a "Bob Marley: Legend" poster in their sleeping quarters.
Meanwhile, Lindsay is in the field stalking a celebrity. And I think she has beer with her.
