35 – Blackbird Comics and Coffeehouse and East of West Vol 1
Monday, 15 December, 2025
For this episode Mike goes to the theme park capital of the world, Orlando FL. While it was a grueling trip…delayed in St. Louis airport for 16 hours, then stuck in the Atlanta airport overnight due to wintry weather…Mike finally landed in Orlando 36 hours later and was able to arrange for an interview at one of the coolest comic shops ever, Blackbird Comics and Coffeehouse. Winner of the 2024 Spirit of Comics Retailer Award winner, this shop has a vibe like no other. It’s atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, and the owners are the best one-two punch Mike’s ever met. Once you visit, you’ll find it difficult to leave this comic shop and bookstore with a cozy café set in the center of it all! Dave and Candice’s story is unique, and the spirit they imbue into their business is contagious. So, buckle up and prepare your ears for the chat with Candice and David at Blackbird Comics and Coffeehouse! Then, Mike is joined by the inimitable DC Dave, half of the dynamic duo hosting The Monitor Tapes, A Crisis on Infinite Earths Podcast to discuss East of West Vol 1! And yes, Dave had to break out of his routine and review a non-DC comic! Find and follow Blackbird Comics and Coffeehouse their website at https://www.theblackbirdroost.com/, as well as on Facebook and Instagram. You can contact them at (321) 316-4296, or better yet, visit them in person to get the full experience, because this podcast simply can’t do it justice.
