Listen, the best part about all of this is that if we're wrong, we just start over again."In this episode, Mike and Alex break down the penultimate volume of Oni Press' The Bunker by Joshua Hale Fialkov and Joe Infurnari with Volume 3 (issues #10-14). The guys jump right into things, exploring how the three-month time jump in the story was handled, and how the "backward" issue plays as a storytelling device. And as they are attempting to heap some praise on Joe Infurnari's art, they get waylaid by the real-time discovery that the trade collection re-orders the issues so that issue #10 (the peek-at-the-future interstitial story drawn by Brahm Revel and colored by Jason Fischer) is presented as the final chapter in this arc (as Alex read it) as opposed to the first (as Mike read it), and go into a discussion of how that shifts the readers' perspective on the remaining issues of this volume. Mike goes so far as to reach out to Joshua Hale Fialkov mid-discussion to try and get some clarity (more on that later).Join us next week as we wrap up our look at The Bunker with Volume 4 (issues #15-19).
