Charlotte, the royal podcaster, and the last prince of podcasting, Manzack begin our two part series on the works of Juni Ba. On this episode we cover the first two major works by Ba.

Comics covered in this episode: – Djeliya
– Monkey Meat

Topics discussed:
– Do all the influences Ba brings together in these comics equal more than the sum of their parts?
– Is Ba successful as an “ambassador” bringing West African folklore to non-African readers?
– Why even ask these questions when the answer is obviously “yes”? (Because I have to write something and I had no good jokes today!)
We’ll wrap up our series covering the work of Juni Ba next month with:
-Robin: Boy Wonder, The Unlikely Story of Felix and Macabber, & Mobilis

After that, we’re doing a six month series covering the work of Osuma Tezuka:

View Details

Charlotte (devil) and Zack (angel) are joined by Dave Buesing (centrist) as we continue our six part series on Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman and a selection of its spin-off titles. On this episode we cover the first half of Mike Carey’s much-lauded 75 issue run of Lucifer. Oh you mean the show about a police consultant who has demon face? No! Well… kind of. Not really.

Comics covered in this episode: – Lucifer Omnibus Vol. 1: Sandman Presents: Lucifer #1–3 & Lucifer #1-35 & Lucifer: Nirvana #1

Topics discussed:
– Does Lucifer adhere to closely to the format of Sandman or does it become its own unique work?
– Is this comic an example of why we need to give new series a chance?
– Will Lucifer and Christopher bone?

Our miniseries on Sandman will be broken into six episodes (all available on DC Universe Infinite Ultra):

– Lucifer Omnibus Vol. 2: Lucifer #36-75 & House of Mystery Halloween Annual #2: Infernal Bargains: Just Say No!

Our next miniseries on Alison Bechdel will be two episodes:
– Dykes to Watch Out For
– Fun Home, Are You My Mother, The Secret to Superhuman Strength

Zuck the Fairy and Charlotte “Iron Slab” Fierro begin our two part series on Kentaro Miura’s seminal dark fantasy manga series Berserk. This episode covers the first 3 volumes, and the next episode will cover volumes 4-14. The manga series continues after that but 14 concludes the first big portion and provides a satisfying conclusion if committing to 42 (and counting) volumes seems intimidating.

Comics covered in this episode:
– Berserk Vol. 1-3

Topics discussed:
– Do these opening volumes “sell” Berserk to its audience?
– Why Guts so sad?
– Is Puck the Rick Jones of Berserk?

Our next miniseries will be on Kentaro Miura’s Berserk:
Ep 2: Vol 4-13 (trust us, splitting it up like this makes sense)

Following that, we’ll be doing a miniseries on Jeff Smith:
Ep 1: Bone, and Rose (A Bone prequel)
Ep 2: RASL

After Jeff Smith, we’ll be covering Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman and M.R. Carey’s Lucifer, as well as some spin off titles. The episode breakdown will be finalized soon.

The Undigestible Zackum and Millenium Charlotte are covering three separate “stoner comics”:

– Dungeon Quest (available on Comixology, vol. 1-4)

– Prison Pit (available as a complete collection on Hoopla)

– Megg, Mogg, and Owl (read Megahex or Megg & Mogg in Amsterdam to start, then read your fill of other volumes)

Topics discussed:
– Is there a unifying theme to these comics or did Zack pull it out of thin air?
– Why does Prison Pit’s edginess work when so many other comics don’t?
– Is Megg, Mogg, and Owl just absurd cruelty or does it strike at something real and human?

Upcoming episodes in our Fantagraphics miniseries: – My Favorite Thing is Monsters/ Monsters
– Black Hole/ Dementia 21
– Love & Rockets (Gilbert Hernandez)
– Love and Rockets Library Editions:
– Heartbreak Soup
– Human Diastrophism

This week I interviewed the creative team behind The Keeper, writers Tananarive Due, Steven Barnes, and artist Marco Finnegan! We talk horror, how a Hollywood rejection turned into a graphic novel, and bringing parenting experiences into fiction.

On Comic Book Herald’s interviews I’ll be interviewing some of my favorite creators in comics about specific runs, graphic novels or series, looking for their insights on the inspirations behind the work and ideas or hidden material readers may have missed. The goal is a fun guide to enjoying the intricacies and thinking in the art. Thanks for listening, and enjoy the comics!
