It's time to get reading and discussing in The Fake Nerd Book Club! The original FNP segment has expanded to its own show, featuring deeper explorations of whole series, special deep dives on novels, interviews with creators, and the archive of segments from the mothership podcast.
For his rotational pick, Ryan brought Taskmaster: The Rubicon Trigger! This volume contains all 5 issues of the 2020 series, written by Jed MacKay with art by Alessandro Vitti. Maria Hill is dead, to begin with, and Taskmaster is the main suspect. Taskmaster has to use his particular skills for Nick Fury Jr. to save himself from the Widow. The guys get into so much of what they love about Taskmaster and what makes this book both badass and humorous. They also get into some light MCU talk by comparison. Enjoy the discussion!
