This week, we discuss the rumor that Wesley Snipes reprise the role of Blade, reports of Warner Brothers “no jokes” policy for their DC Movies, and Donald Glover’s dream of playing Spider-Man becoming a reality.

Plus, we talk to the Answer of the Week’s own Jason Sacks about his new book, The American Comic Book Chronicles: The 1970s when we go Inside the Comic Studio!
