Reminder: new pod! In This Issue.. episode 8
What?! A new pod??! Yep! Join Process Party co-host Zack Soto for In This Issue… a podcast about formative comics reading experiences, with a focus on the single issue format. Every episode finds Zack and a special guest doing a close reading of a comic book (not a graphic novel!) and havin’ a lively chat about it. This is a presentation of Episode 8 with cartoonist Adam DeSouza on Nausicaa of the Valley Of The Wind #1 by Hayao Miyazaki, Tom Orzechowski, Dana Lewis & Toren Smith, and published 1988 by Viz Comics. Fair warning: they both LOVE this comic, so Nausicaa haters beware!

Customer Reviews
Super special
A peek under the hood at comics creation, work/life balance, self-publishing, showing up — the real nuts and bolds of being an independent creative, from two great comic artists and a seriously incredible lineup of guests. Very happy its back, and hope to hear more process-oriented episodes in the future!
The DVD special features for indie comics!
I work from home and I was super excited to discover this podcast. As a comic creator myself still trying to find an audience, this podcast renews my faith that its possible with each episode. Its great to hear creators talking to other creators in a causual way. It makes me realize that they are real people just like myself who struggle with similar things but still have found a way to make it in the indie comics world! Thanks Zack and Mike!
Filled My Hole
There was a hole in my chest the size and shape of a good comics podcast and Study Group came along and filled it perfectly. Now there is zero blood leaking out.
