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?

Yan and Nat wander through the kaleidoscopic worlds of "Skip" by Molly Mendoza.--BZZT-- Hi, Scott here, producer on Comic Sans, seeking your help. It's usually my job to write these episode descriptions. And you may be wondering — why is today's so short? The answer to which is, because I'm lost for words on how to describe Skip. I really have no idea. So how about this — today, just listen to the episode. Or watch it on YouTube. In fact, just read the comic for yourself. And if you have any ideas at all as to how to write this description, email me at comicsans@andasproductions.com. Please? Thank you.---In this episode, Nat reads pages 1–80.Show notes and bibliography available here.Hear an interesting ad?

Yan and Nat wander through the kaleidoscopic worlds of "Skip" by Molly Mendoza. --BZZT-- Hi, Scott here, producer on Comic Sans, seeking your help. It's usually my job to write these episode descriptions. And you may be wondering — why is today's so short? The answer to which is, because I'm lost for words on how to describe Skip. I really have no idea. So how about this — today, just listen to the episode. Or watch it on YouTube. In fact, just read the comic for yourself. And if you have any ideas at all on what to write here, email me at comicsans@andasproductions.com. Please? Thank you. 00:00 - Preamble 02:54 - Unhinged Yant: A Hop and a Dimensional Jump 06:04 - Nat's Five Words 07:55 - Yan's Recap 12:04 - Discussion 32:44 - Yan's Final Questions In this episode, Nat reads Skip by Molly Mendoza, pages 1–80.
