Bad Idea Take Over with Dinesh Shamdasani & Warren Simons
The Comic Source Podcast
Jace chats with the co-CEO’s of Bad Idea to get the lowdown and Eniac #1, allocations and launch day. There are a TON of rumors flying around out there, so we are here to set the record straight. We talk about why there weren’t enough first printings to go around, how Bad Idea came up the number of books to be printed and how they hope to resolve this going forward. Also plenty of talk about the speculation market and just why are all those rules in place anyway. How come there will be no trades or digital? We ask it all, plus some listener & forum questions as well. If you have heard about Bad Idea and aren’t sure what to think … this is the podcast you MUST listen to.
