Welcome back to the show! Listen in as MMP starts off a new month with a new theme: manga! Taking a break from American comics, the focus this week is on Detective Conan Volume 1 File #1 and #2 written and illustrated by Gosho Aoyama. As the title suggests, the story revolves around a young detective as he solves case files. Besides exploring the comic itself, the gang also discusses the ways manga comics contrast with American comics. Listen in and see if you agree with the hosts' assessments. Don't forget to read from right to left!
