Thanks so much!

I’ve learned tons as a cartoonist and student, and I love the depth and detail. Would you consider doing an episode on the cyborg manifesto? I feel like the concepts explored there are kind of hard to enter for those less well versed but has a lot of potential crossover with comics and pedagogy.

Thank you!

I love this podcast so much! It’s so well researched and informative and Cathy and Remus are lovely. I’ve found this content especially helpful as a college student and an art maker but I recommend it to just about anybody.

Demasculinized readings into comics

Researched conversations on persons, events, and ideas through the history of comics. While comics is not a new medium, scholarly work in the field has long lacked accessibility, leading to a lack of attention. Their work to illuminate through the mass density of pages and to amplify the conditions of marginalized artists is vital.
