Join comic book fans Jen Stansfield-Marek and Shawn Marek each week for WORST COLLECTION EVER. It's a comedy and culture podcast where Jen and Shawn poke fun at their own collection of random comic books with loads of crass sincerity and scattershot nostalgia.
And, if you want to follow along, we tend to read the books in sequential order as to track the lunacy in real time!

Absolute Batman #1 (2024)
It is all about the Absolute this month as we check out some of the premiere issues of the Absolute Universe from DC Comics!
We start off with the meaty thighs of ABSOLUTE BATMAN and his blue-collar origin story where Bruce is almost seven feet tall, Alfred is not his friend (yet) and Martha Wayne is STILL ALIVE! We also got possible squid people, Alfred with Paulie Walnuts hair, ears that turn into knives and baby tailors turned Doonesbury characters. All joking aside, this is a pretty sweet book and well worth your time.
All this plus we share some gripes about how to read digital comics. Why does Amazon have to make it so difficult?
