In this week’s landmark 200th episode of Off Panel, friend of the show Brandon Burpee returns for a look back on 10 years of writing about comics in the podcast’s longest episode ever. Topics discussed include giving out some awards for the decade, including MVP, most improved, publisher of the decade, and more, answering listener questions, like our comic book origin stories, thoughts on the comics internet, where back issues fit in comics, and more, before we close with sharing our ten favorite comics from the past ten years.

You can find Burpee on Twitter.
