Welcome to Comic Sans, a Signal Award-winning podcast about comics for those who are sans knowledge.
Yan is a comic book reader, writer, and lover. Nat plays football every Tuesday and Friday. Whether you're a comic book enthusiast like Yan, or an alleged know-nothing like Nat, this podcast is for you.
In our second season we take a look at some of Yan's favorite comics, ranging from slice-of-life graphic novels to isekai manga. Will Nat love them, hate them, or get distracted by his dogs?
