We stay on a horror tip as Gavin (The Boneman) gushes over Locke and Key: Welcome to Lovecraft in Trade Talk. And will Dan (Marshalllaw) enjoy The Boys volume.1 enough to pick up volume.2 for Knowing Me, Knowing You? And a message from the X-Centric UnderGround makes it's way out of Xaviers School for Gifted Youngsters.

We've got a packed package of new comics to cover in Stack Attack including Secret Six #5, Spider-Man Noir #1, Cable #10, Dark Avengers #1, Mighty Avengers #21, The Punisher #1, The Punisher: War Zone #4-5, Justice Society of America #22, Captain Britain & MI:13 #9, X-Men: Legacy #220, Uncanny X-Men Annual #2 and many more! Just how many comics can Gavin review in 2 minutes, you're about to find out.

A tense yet informative Secrets and Lies this week as the score is now tied so every point counts, whose side are you on? We have lots of other Geek chatter in any other business with discussions on The Spirit, The Wrestler, Battlestar Galactica, The Clone Wars and Wolverine and the X-Men, aswell as a triumphant return for Challenge Mikey.

We've been cock heavy for far too long, the sisters of the suffragette movement would be spinning in their horse trodden graves, so we decided to get a woman's point of view and take a look at comics with strong female leads. Your usual hosts of Dan (Marshalllaw) and Gavin (The Boneman) are joined this week by Gavin's sweet-ass girlfriend, known only as Knuckles checking out Zero Girl (her second comic ever!) by Sam Keith in Dig This! Can you guess which of the past Sidekickcast alumni turns up halfway through the show to give his point of view on our 2008 Media review? And be sure to listen out for a special X-Centric announcement.

We've got a packed Stack Attack in order to make up for all the stuff we missed during our extended Christams/New Year break covering: New Avengers #48, Incognito #1, Ultimatum #2, Magneto: Testament #4 (of 5), Batman: Cacophony #2 (of 3), Punisher: War Zone #3 (of 6), Uncanny X-Men #505, X-Men Legacy #219, X-Force #10, Gigantic #2 and Invincible Iron Man #9.

Dan's team need one more point to tie Secrets and Lies, can he make it three a piece, this could change everything!
We move onto a new era in Knowing Me, Knowing You with the Boys taking the place as Dan's new book, what were his final thoughts on FEAR Agent?

Grrl Scouts get's the Trade Talk treatment in our new trade paperback segment which splits the Sidekicks straight down the middle.
We round out the show with our relaxed lazy ass version of a 2008 Review, learn what the Sidekicks are listening to when they're not listening to the Sidekickcast. Don't forget to check out our outakes after the outro music, it's good to be back.
