Ooooooeeee you guys! 2025 was a DOOZY! From a complete meltdown of the formerly largest distributor in the industry, to the highest sales in years, and with all sorts of crazyness thrown in between, the B.R.O.S. check in on each other, their stores, and the state of the comics industry in this incredible episode.
This episode and every episode of the Data B.R.O.S. is sponsored by Murphy's Apple Juice. Murphy's Apple Juice, it's the shape, not the taste, but it's also the taste...which is pretty danged good.
The Data B.R.O.S. is also sponsored by The Comics Place in Bellingham Washington and Earth 519 Collectibles in London, Ontario, Canada (Universe 519).
The Data B.R.O.S. are Django Bohren, Jeff Figley, and Brian Garside.
The Data B.R.O.S. love you, but in a wholesome and respectful way that your mom would approve of, and which isn't at all creepy. Okay, the uninterrupted eye contact MAY be a little bit creepy, but you know what's not creepy? The hugs.
It has come to our attention recently that the hugs ARE indeed creepy, and it's not so much the hugs, but the way the B.R.O. hands wander up your back and rest under your hoodie. Just typing this is actually making me a little heebied (of the Heebies and Jeebies).
