  eps. 132: Marvel Knights Daredevil #26-37 (Underboss) by Brian Michael Bendis & Alex Maleev

  Aug 4, 20261h 12m

  In Hell’s Kitchen there stalks a devil. And that devil is Marvel Comics’ trade paperback numbering system. No. For this episode we read issues 26 to 37 of Marvel Knights Daredevil by Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev. Come with us and spend some time with the comics that set the tone for modern Marvel superheroes. We’ll discuss gritty gangsters, the gap between writing and drawing, rotoscoping, and whether ACAB includes the crooked cop who ruined Matt Murdock’s google results. Music by Sleuth. Our next episode will be on Marvel Knights Daredevil numbers 38 to 50 by Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev.

  REPOST: "The Complete Persepolis" by Marjane Satrapi

  Jun 5, 202655 min

  With the recent passing of Marjane Satrapi, we are reposting this episode from 2018 that we recorded with Kathlees Gros and Jess Pollard about "The Complete Persepolis." Marjane shared several stories with the world in a few different media during her life, but Persepolis in particular is a seminal work in the medium of comics. This memoir of her life growing up in Iran and then Europe is more important than ever, and it will outlive all of us. Let it never be forgotten. Music by Sleuth. We’ve got new episodes in the works, so look for that soon.

  eps. 129: "Hello Sunshine" by Keezy Young

  Mar 21, 20261h 4m

  We’re back with the weighty graphic novel "Hello Sunshine" by Keezy Young, a book that weaves together one person’s mental health crisis with supernatural horror in a way that is simultaneously smart, original, and respectful. This book is a lot more than just “Scooby-Doo, but serious.” Be prepared for spoilers (go read the book first), and stay tuned for some character-revealing moments. Music by Sleuth. Our next episode will be on "Flip" by Ngozi Ukazu.
