What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This is a good podcast that could use some work to become great. The main host could work to spend less time generaling the plot page by page or more focus on critism of the books quality and themes. Still opened my eyes to a lot of books and enjoy a lot of their coverage for series like TMNT and Transformers.

ForceWithMe66 · Feb 2018

There are a plethora of comic book/pop culture podcasts here on iTunes so it can become something of a chore to single out the good from the bad. I only recently came across "The Pull Bag" & what grabbed my attention was that they cover one of my all time favorite characters, the TMNT. They do lengthy epsiodes breaking down, discussing & analyzing IDW's current TMNT series & I love it. Other comic book podcasts rarely mention this series so to find two guys who love & enjoy the TMNT comics as much as I do is just great. I really enjoyed the Tom Waltz interview & look forward to what they cover next. Also, thanks for covering DC's MOTU series as well IDW's Transformers. Two very underrated comic books.

One of the great moments of each week is walking into your local comic shop and seeing what's in your "pull." You might have a vague idea of what is going to be there but there is usually something unexpected and that is normally something special. That's what this podcast is to me, a chance to get some great comics talk and the chance for something extra special, like the Thom Zahler interview. Great job team, keep it up!

Jesse W Jackson · Sep 2015

Anyone who is just a lover of TMNT, DC, Marvel, or any Indie publishers The Pull Bag has got it all. They also have some great specialty shows in regards to Comic Book characters as well as some upcomming After Dark episodes. It's your job and duty as a fellow comic book lover to visit and support your local comic book store. A much welcomed addition from the creators of The GCRN. BTW, this show got me into an "Unknown," Comic Bubba The Redneck Wearwolf. Thanks Guys.
