Adam interviews Kalervo Sinervo and Anna Peppard, two PhDs who teach university courses on comic book history, to get the details on their academic research project exploring the cultural impact of Wizard magazine on fandom in the 20th century and beyond. It's a fascinating discussion that opens up a world of possibilities and ideas about the legacy of The Guide To Comics.
