On this episode, I spoke to actor James Norton and director, writer, and producer Uberto Pasolini about their work on Nowhere Special.  James Norton is best known for his roles in the popular British television series “Happy Valley,” “McMafia,” “War and Peace” and “Granchester.” In 2015 he was nominated for a BAFTA TV Award for Best Supporting Actor for his work on “Happy Valley” and in 2021 was nominated for a BIFA (Best Actor) for “Nowhere Special.” His work encompasses stage and screen; his most recent theatre performance in Ivo Van Hove's staging of “A Little Life,” for which James garnered an Olivier Award nomination for his role as ‘Jude.' His screen work includes Greta Gerwig's “Little Women,” the Netflix thriller “Things Seen and Heard” with Amanda Seyfried, HBO Series “The Nevers,” Agnieszka Holland's “Mr Jones” and most recently as the legendary record producer, Chris Blackwell, in the blockbuster hit, “Bob Marley: One Love.”  Uberto Pasolini founded Red Wave Films in 1993. He produced “The Full Monty,” which took over 250 million dollars at the worldwide box office, won a BAFTA for Best Film and was nominated for four Oscars including Best Picture. Other Red Wave produced films include “Palookaville” and “The Emperor's New Clothes.” In 2007 Uberto directed, wrote and produced “Machan,” winner of numerous international awards including the Europa Cinemas Label Award in Venice. “Still Life,” his second feature, starred Eddie Marsan and Joanne Froggatt and went on to win Best Director, Orizzonti, Venice 2013 and numerous international festival awards. “Nowhere Special” starring James Norton premiered in Orizzonti at the 2020 Venice Film Festival.

On this episode of Vinyl Verdict, Bell, Jamie and Plouffe listen to Plouffe's next pick, Fatboy Slim's "Palookaville". Released in 2004, it is the last studio album from Fatboy Slim, a.k.a Norman Cook. Continuing his style of loops and beats, the album was released to mixed reviews, with many reviewers calling it a low-point in his career. Several reviewers also noted that the album could've used another pass to remove unnecessary songs. But what will the boys think? Will this album only appeal to long haired freaky people? Come along and find out!

Albion’s pioneering social distancing at corners two years BEFORE Covid struck, nightclub clauses for annoying Star Wars characters’ wayward football careers and the glorious Palookaville shirt come into focus, on this week’s show, as we enjoy another chat with our ‘friend in the north’, Robin Woolley. All that’s great but the main attraction is of course the hapless no-mark defenders who share initials with Russell G (Guerreiro aside)!

A prizefighter on his way to the top, until some shady types decide it might be best if he were to lose his next match... or else. Now its up to our heroes to find out who's in back of the scheme and if this is a fight they can win... or will they all get their tickets punched for the Palookaville Express?

On this week's Kickstarter show, Derek talks with Nick Prolix about his campaign for Slang Pictorial #3. This will be a 24-page black-and-white comic, following up on on the already published first two hardcopy issues. Nick is using his first-ever Kickstarter in order to cover the comic's printing and shipping. Plus, he has a really cool promotional video! Slang Pictorial is Nick's one-person anthology comic, and it includes his serialized retro comedy-drama The Sheep And The Wolves. This story actually began as a webcomic, and it's a light-hearted look at the broken dreams and busted schemes of the many residents of a fictional London neighborhood at the start of the Swinging Sixties. Slang Pictorial also includes an assortment of other stories set in the same world. Backers can also get reprints of the first two issues of the anthology, and there are exclusive prints and art cards, as well. If you're a fan of Palookaville, Eightball, and Optic Nerve, then this is definitely a comic for you. Be sure to back Nick's Slang Pictorial! Sample Covers

Time Codes: 00:00:24 - Introduction 00:03:27 - Setup of interview 00:06:00 - Interview with Seth 01:51:43 - Wrap up 01:52:32 - Contact us The Man from Guelph On this interview episode, Derek is pleased to have as his guest one of his favorite creators, Seth. His latest volume of Palookaville was published last year by Drawn and Quarterly, and while every release of Seth's signature series is worth noting, this one is particularly significant. It wraps up his "Clyde Fans" storyline, one he began in 1997 in Palookaville #10. Derek asks Seth about the process of undertaking this ongoing narrative and the considerations of sustaining it for twenty years. They also discuss the autobiographical "Nothing Lasts," a series that Seth began in volume 21 of Palookaville. Much of the conversation concerns Seth's autobiographical storytelling, or his faux-autobiographical comics (in the case of It's a Good Life, If You Don't Weaken), and the ways in which the past informs his sense of place and identity. Indeed, memory is a major theme in Seth's stories, and the two spend a good deal of time talking about it as a defining feature of his comics. But while much of the discussion centers on the most recent volume of Palookaville, Derek also asks his guest about the general trajectory of his career. They talk about his sketchbook comics, such as Wimbledon Green and The Great Northern Brotherhood of Canadian Cartoonists, his evolving illustration style, the creation of Dominion, the melancholy George Sprott: 1894-1975, his rubber stamp diary, his life-defining relationships with Chester Brown and Joe Matt, his design and illustration work for Fantagraphics' Complete Peanuts series and Lemony Snicket's All the Wrong Questions books, his plans for future issues of Palookaville, and his wife's business, Crown Barber Shop.  

Images for this episode (starting 7/17, 9am EDT): http://wp.me/p42KN3-EDD On this week’s Comics Syllabus podcast, Paul and writer/poet/teacher/podcaster Rachelle Cruz talk about “Uncomfortably Happily” by Yeon-Sik Hong (translated by Hellen Jo), out recently from Drawn + Quarterly. After an introduction to Rachelle and her work, they delve into this autobiographical tale of a period of Korean manhwa artist Hong’s life when he and his wife moved out of big-city Seoul and into the mountains, maintaining their marriage, life in the countryside, and the travails and triumphs of a creative life together. Rachelle helps to shed light on why this deceptively simple work has been celebrated by Korean audiences and yet speaks to widely appealing themes. But first, in the opening “General Ed” segment, part 2 of this month’s “The Wait List” segment, where Paul discusses some of the hardcovers, trade paperbacks, and collections coming out over the next couple weeks with “trade-waiter” and casual comics fan Sonny (who also happens to be Paul’s brother). Paul and Sonny mention releases from the 3rd week of July (19th): “Mighty Thor Premium HC v3” ‘Asgard Shi’ar War’ (Marvel), “Ms Marvel v7” ‘Damage per Second’ (Marvel), “Palookaville” #23 by Seth (D+Q), and “Punisher v2” ‘End of the Line’ (Marvel); and releases from the 4th week of July (26th): “By Chance or Providence” by Becky Cloonan (Image), “Flash Rebirth Deluxe Collected HC” (DC), “Kill or Be Killed v2” by Brubaker and Phillips (Image), and “Street Angel Gang HC” by Jim Rugg (Image). MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Rachelle Cruz on Twitter: https://twitter.com/rawqeli Blood Jet Writing Hour: https://thebloodjet.wordpress.com/ Newsarama Interview with “Uncomfortably Happily” translator Hellen Jo: https://www.newsarama.com/35041-hellen-jo-gets-uncomfortably-happily-translating-korean-graphic-novel-for-d-q.html I’m Paul, and I’m inviting you to join us for another episode of The Comics Syllabus, a comics analysis podcast. Our mantra is, we read widely and we dig deep. Each week, we choose one work from a wide breadth of current and classic comics, including superhero fare, comics from independent publishers and small presses, global comics, newspaper strip archives, and various collected editions. We spend time digging deep into the work from various perspectives, sometimes in actual live conversation with others, sometimes with just me on a mic surrounded by a pile of comics studies and academic books. It’s like a comics seminar, where the only prerequisite is that you love comics. NEXT WEEK on the Comics Syllabus: Paul is joined by comics scholar and #BlackComicsChat podcaster Grace Gipson to talk about “Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur” and “Black Panther: World of Wakanda” from Marvel. Subscribe to the podcast or keep it locked here at Multiversity for that conversation.

Seth returns to the show to talk about Palookaville, making a living, his changing relationship to comics and cartoonists, his retrospection on the '90s cohort he came up with, the creative sanctity of the studio and the creation of art no one will see, finishing his Clyde Fans serial after 20 years (and what he wants to work on next, being the subject of a documentary, seeing his work animated, doing collaborative work, taking up photography, a key lesson he learned about marriage, the disadvantages of being a people pleaser, why Kickstarter may be like an IQ test, and more! Plus, he asks me some questions! • More info at our site • Support The Virtual Memories Show via Patreon or Paypal

Welp, it's official. Matt-Man and Jayman are old. I know it's hard to believe that two guys as sexy and full of life as them could possibly get old, but somehow it happened. Matt and Jay are now confined to a life of waking up each morning wondering what weird mystery ailment they will be suffering from. Will it be hip pain? An ankle? Shoulder? Achy hands? A crick in their necks? Maybe just an upsetting feeling of ennui? Who knows?!  Anyway, Matt and Jay will be discussing how they suddenly became big strong OLD men and how they plan to deal with it. They will also take a nostalgic trip down memory lane and talk about when they were young and had promising futures and how great things like TV, radio, music and everything else was back in the day.  As always, Canadian Bureau Chief Jamie Mapleleaf will be here along with the IWS Players to make you laugh, think, cry and get angry enough to kick a kitten. But, not a puppy. Never a puppy. All that and so much more including YOUR CALLS @ 661.244.9852!!

In this extra-long episode, Andy and Derek discuss their 10 favorite titles of the year. Neither knows what the other has chosen before the recording, giving the episode a sense of freshness, spontaneousness, and surprise. And there are indeed several surprises in this year's picks, including the fact that there is only one title that appears on both guys' lists. Also, noticeably absent from their selections are the titles that have been populating many of the mainstream press' "Best of" lists (e.g., Killing and Dying, The Sculptor, Lumberjanes, and The Sandman: Overture: Deluxe Edition). And each of the guys notes some trends that appear in his list this year. For Andy, it's the prominence of autobiographical comics, and for Derek, it's a an emphasis on realistic novel-like narratives. Before they get to their favorites, though, they go over some year-end statistics regarding the podcast. For example, over the past year the guys have published 139 episodes (as of last week), which is roughly 42% of all of the episodes they've put out since the podcast began in 2012. They have also conducted 39 interviews in 2015, published 8 publisher spotlight episodes, and began two new monthly series (one for manga and another for young adult/children's comics). Needless to say, it's been a productive year for the guys. But the heart of this week's episode is the Two Guys' discussion of their ten favorite titles of 2015: Andy's Top 10 of 2015 The Unabridged Graphic Adaptation of iTunes Terms and Conditions - R.

This week on the podcast, Derek and Andy W. discuss three new and very different titles. They begin with a narrative based in reality, Mike's Place: A True Story of Love, Blues, and Terror in Tel Aviv, written by Jack Baxter and Joshua Faudem, with art by Koren Shadmi (First Second). This is the story of an American who travels to Israel to make a documentary, teams up with an Israeli film student, and then learns firsthand both the promises and the dangers of the conflicted culture. Mike's Place is beachfront bar in Tel Aviv where politics and religion are checked at the front door. It's sacred text is written with music, drink, and multicultural camaraderie. But the filmmakers soon learn that safe havens, political and personal, can be a tenuous proposition. Andy and Derek highlight the authors' evenhanded approach to their politically charged subject matter as well as their ability to make Mike's Place a story of community, not a single-minded treatise. And after all of that reality, the Two Guys head in the opposite direction with fantasy. Noelle Stevenson's Nimona (HarperCollins) is a story with supervillains, shapeshifters, and lots of cool scheming. This was a highly popular webcomic -- in fact, it's nominated in that category for this year's Eisner Awards -- that is now high-production trade paperback. Overall, both of the guys like the book, however, both of them also have problems with Stevenson's narrative. Andy feels that the author changes the rules of her storytelling as the book progresses, giving it an uneven feel. And Derek has problems with the pacing and overall story coherency. There are some scenes that are much too decompressed, and at times the dialogue is bloated and meandering. In many ways, the guys see Nimona as illustrative example of how popular webcomics may not successfully translate into other narrative platforms. Stevenson's style might have resonated with devoted web readers, eagerly awaiting each digital installment, but that kind of storytelling isn't always as effective (or as convincing) when presented as a singular text. Standing in stark contrast is the final title that Derek and Andy discuss, Optic Nerve #14, by Adrian Tomine. As he reveals in the issue's final self-depricating one-pager, Tomine has tried to resist the instantaneous, immediately gratifying world of digital publication and social media. This latest issue of his signature series, published by Drawn and Quarterly since 1995, is divided into two main stories. "Killing and Dying" is a family drama surrounding a teenager's desire to become a standup comedian, and "Intruders," dedicated to Yoshihiro Tatsumi, is an unsettling story about a soldier between tours of duty trying to reacquaint himself with his former life. Each is a brilliant example of Tomine's skills as a storyteller, his abilities to take common, everyday premises and invest in them profound themes. Issue #14 is reminiscent of the previous two issues of Optic Nerve -- structured similarly, presented similarly, and packaged similarly -- and all three will soon be collected together in Killing and Dying. Much like the guys felt about Seth and Palookaville last month, both Derek and Andy see Adrian Tomine as one of the most important comics artists working today, and his art is a careful, measured testament to medium's potential.

This week on the their weekly review show, Derek and Andy W. discuss three new books that are definitely worth checking out. They begin with Pénélope Bagieu's Exquisite Corpse from First Second. This may be the first English-language publication for Bagieu (the guys aren't certain about this), and it's a great introduction from one of France's current popular creators. It's a romantic comedy with a sophisticated premise and an unexpected twist at the end. In fact, it's the narrative's quick wrap-up that puzzles the Two Guys. While they both enjoyed the story, they nonetheless read the ending as an undermining -- perhaps a betrayal? -- of character cohesiveness that was established in the first 4/5 of the book. It's almost as if Begieu changed her mind in the final pages of her narrative and wanted to rewrite the way  we should interpret a major character. Still, her art is infectious and works hand-in-hand with the humorous, yet incisive, events that unfold. Next, the guys look at Operation Nemesis: A Story of Genocide and Revenge (Devil's Due), written by Josh Blaylock and with art by Hoyt Silva. This is a historical narrative focusing on the trial of Soghomon Tehlirian, the Armenian expatriate who assassinated Taalat Pasha, the former Minister of the Interior of the Ottoman Empire, in Berlin during the early days of the Weimar Republic. But the trial is merely a scaffolding on which Blaylock constructs his story of the horrific Armenian Genocide of 1915, a slaughter that the Turkish government to this day will not acknowledge. As Andy and Derek point out, the art is a little confusing in places, but the message comes through loud and clear. This true story is an uncomfortable read, and purposefully so, and it brings much-needed attention to a twentieth-century holocaust that is woefully overlooked. Finally, the Two Guys with PhDs turn to the latest volume of Seth's Palookaville (Drawn and Quarterly). Derek has been looking forward to #22 since the last installment in October 2013, but as it always is with Seth's comics, it's well worth the wait. This is Andy's first exposure to Palookaville, and the guys play off of this difference of reading experience: Andy as a Seth novice and Derek as a diehard fan. As with the two previous book versions of Palookaville -- issues #1-#19 of the title was published in comic-book form -- this one is divided into three sections. The first is a continuation of Seth's ongoing narrative, Clyde Fans, which began in Palookaville #10 from 1997. We're well into the fourth part of this story, set in 1975 and focusing on retired salesman Abraham Matchcard, his reclusive brother Simon, and his encounter with his former lover, Alice. But Abe's real relationship is with his past, and Seth is expert at teasing out character through memory, scenic transitions, and inner dialogue. The middle section of the book is a composite of photoessay and comics, focusing on the Crown Barber Shop in Guelph, Ontario, and owned by Seth's wife Tania Van Spyk. Derek is particularly taken with this contribution since his father was a barber, and he grew up working as a shoeshine boy in a similar kind of shop. The third section of Palookaville is the second part of "Nothing Lasts," one of Seth's sketchbook stories that began in the previous volume. This is an autobiographic narrative that carries us through the author's teenage years. As with the previous installment, the comic is profoundly moving with a rich mixture of understanding, melancholy, and wistfulness. As with all of Seth's works, this volume of Palookaville will make you long for the kind of Canadian landscape and atmosphere that only he can deliver.

Welcome to February, faithful listeners! And just as day follows night, every new month brings another opportunity for the Two Guys with PhDs (Talking about Comics) to discuss the latest solicits in the Previews catalog. As you might expect, Andy and Derek find a lot to discuss in the new Previews, highlighting upcoming titles from premiere publishers, smaller presses, and a few outlets you may not have even heard of. For example, they discuss future releases from Dark Horse Comics (Brian Wood and Andrea Mutti's Rebels, Gilbert Hernandez's Grip: The Strange World of Men, and the latest volume of Eiji Otsuka and Housui Yamasaki's The Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service), DC/Vertigo (their latest anthology, Vertigo Quarterly: SFX #1), IDW Publishing (the second volume in their new Corto Maltese reprint series, as well as IDW's new Disney comics initiative), Image Comics (new series such as Chip Zdarsky and Kagan McLeod's Kaptara, Alexi De Campi and Carla Speed McNeil's No Mercy, and Kurtis J. Wieebe and Johnnie Christmas's Pisces), AdHouse (Sophie Goldstein's The Oven), Alternative Comics (Sam Alden's Haunted, Steve Aylett's Johnny Viable and his Friends, and a new edition of Rich Tommaso's Clover Honey), Amulet Books (Nathan Hale's Hazardous Tales, Vol. 5: The Underground Abductor), Bergen Street Press (Michel Fiffe's Copra: Round Two), BOOM! Studios/Archaia (James Tynion IV, Noahh J. Yuenkel, and Matt Fox's Ufology #1 as well as the first collected volume of Lumberjanes), Drawn and Quarterly (the latest volume in Seth's Palookaville, Tadao Tsuge's Trash Market, and Jillian Tamaki's Supermutant Magic Academy), Fantagraphics Books (Vaughn Bodē's Cheech Wizard's Big Book of Me, Robert Goodin's The Kurdles, and Bill Schelly's new biography, Harvey Kurtzman: The Man Who Created Mad and Revolutionized Humor in America), Goff Books (Johnny Lau's World Water Wars), Microcosm Publishing (Lisa Wilde's Snake Pit Gets Old: Daily Diary Comics 2010-2012), Oni Press (Zander Cannon's Kaijumax #1), SelfMadeHero (Julie Birmant's Pablo and Ilya's Room for Love), Top Shelf Productions (Keith Knight's Knight Takes Queen and a reprint of Martin Luther King and the Montgomery Story), and Viz Media's new deluxe edition of Junji Ito's Gyo. As is the case with every Previews episode, there's a lot packed into this week's show -- so get listening, get excited, and get reading!

BLACK JACK JUSTICE 17 – PALOOKAVILLE EXPRESS (MYSTERY) Jack and Trixie's new client is a truly impressive side of beef, if the girl detective does say so herself. A prizefighter on his way to the top, until some shady types decide it might be best if he were to lose his next match... or else. Now its up to our heroes to find out who's in back of the scheme and if this is a fight they can win... or will they all get their tickets punched for the Palookaville Express? Decoder Ring Theatre  

This week the Two Guys with PhDs review Seth's Palookaville #21 (Drawn and Quarterly) and The Fox #1, by Dean Haspiel and Mark Waid (Red Circle Comics). They begin by providing a primer on Palookaville and the 16-year run (so far) of the serialized Clyde Fans. They spend a good amount of time talking about the latest installment of Clyde Fans, part four, and then move on to the two overtly autobiographical sections of this issue of Palookaville: “Rubber Stamp Diary” and “Nothing Lasts, Part One.” Both Gene and Derek are fascinated with the very concept of the former, using specially designed rubber stamps to keep an illustrated diary. And they are bowled over by “Nothing Lasts,” a section from one of Seth's sketchbooks and a better story than most people's finished comics. Next they turn their critical eyes to Haspiel and Waid's The Fox, a new superhero title for Archie Comic's Red Circle imprint. (Yes, we know that The Comics Alternative doesn't focus on superhero comics, but this first issue is a notable and justifiable exception, especially since Dean Haspiel is a friend of Gene's.) They comment on the history of The Fox, beginning back in the 1940s, and then discuss how Haspiel and Waid revive the character for current times. What the Two Guys discover inadvertently are the thematic similarities between The Fox – Haspiel's critique of social and digital media — and Seth's emphasis on the past and older printed materials. All in all, it is a fun review show for Derek and Gene, and they both wholeheartedly recommend Palookaville #21 and The Fox #1 to everyone.

This week on the podcast Andy and Derek flip through the pages of the June Previews catalog, and there they find a whole slew of great upcoming titles. In fact, this month they find solicits on an exciting lineup of new alternative and indie books, including Adrian Tomine's Optic Nerve and Seth's Palookaville (both from Drawn and Quarterly), the Hernandez brothers' Love and Rockets: New Stories No. 6 (Fantagraphics), John Lewis and Andrew Aydin's March, Book 1 (Top Shelf), Zak Sally's Sammy the Mouse Vol. 2 (Uncivilized Books), Ben Acker and Ben Blacker's The Thrilling Adventure Hour (Archaia Entertainment), Jack Katz's The First Kingdom, Vol. 1: The Birth of Tundran (Titan Comics), P. Craig Russell's Opera Adaptations (NBM), Classics Illustrated Deluxe, Vol. 10: The Murder in the Rue Morgue and Other Tales (Papercutz), as well as Howard Chaykin's Buck Rogers in the 25th Century and Walt Kelly's Pogo: The Complete Dell Comics, Vol. 1 (both from Hermes Press).

Big Ideas presents a short documentary on Toronto graphic novelist, Seth. Seth is the creator of Palookaville and It's a Good Life, If You Don't Weaken.

Jack and Trixie's new client is a truly impressive side of beef, if the girl detective does say so herself.
