Cinema Junkie has been on a quarantine break but I decided that July, the month of Comic-Con, would be a great time to make a comeback. My first guest is someone who not only fits the spirit of Comic-Con, but also is a longtime friend and frequent Cinema Junkie guest and that is Dr. Arnold T. Blumberg, a.k.a. Doctor of the Dead. We've bonded over zombies in the past and now I want to tap into a different side of his expertise to talk about comic book movies. Join the KPBS Cinema Junkie LIVE Relaunch Twitch Party at 7 p.m. Thursday, July 15. The party is being hosted on Twitch by DJ (and neuroscientist) Eric Leonardis.
