In this episode, we look ahead to the July 29 debut of Paper Girls on Amazon Prime with a look at Paper Girls Vol. 1, collecting the first five issues of the comics series by Brian K. Vaughan and Cliff Chiang, published by Image Comics! When four 12-year-old girls join forces to deliver the Cleveland Preserver on the dark pre-dawn morning of Nov. 1, 1988, they find themselves riding their bikes straight into a nightmare of terrifying pterodactyl creatures, menacing, armored “old-timers,” and time-traveling, tech-scavenging teenagers! Can our preteen paper-slingers keep their idyllic suburb from meeting its final deadline? And can they finish their rounds in time to make that extra-special edition known as ... The Comics Canon?

In this episode, we wrap up our True Stories miniseries on nonfiction and autobiographical comics with a look at Louis Riel: A Comic-Strip Biography, published by Drawn & Quarterly! Writer and artist Chester Brown (Yummy Fur) chronicles the career of Riel, the Canadian political leader and freedom fighter, in a flat, dispassionate style that holds the reader at arm's length, blunting some of the story's natural drama. The result is nonetheless a fascinating portrait of an important figure in Canadian history. But is that enough to gain entry into that House of Commons known as ... The Comics Canon? In This Episode: The return of The Quizzical Canonical (Canadian bands edition)!

Having recorded several shows together... and separately, the two vanished without a trace, wiped from existence.

It's now five years later… This week, in honor of the upcoming Halloween, Vactor and Hunter Camp discuss Paper Girls, Vol. 1

Chaos, armageddon, monsters, time- travelers, and a few young denizens delivering papers in a Ohio suburb, Paper Girls is not a comic to be missed. Here we get the tale of four young girls as they navigate the dangerous and chimerical occurrences of their small town. K.J., Mac, Tiff, and Erin go up against insurmountable odds and add their own brand of hilarious banter and juvenescent hijinks as they do their best to stay alive in the bizarre new world they've entered into. Host Jay Van Veen is joined for further examination of this comic book by Kat Lidstone, who offers wonderful insights into the story and even went above and beyond to translate some of the alien notation encoded within the pages. Also, if you listen to this podcast while computing Boltzmann's entropy formula, you'll be endowed with the mythical ability to manipulate the underpinnings of existence on the third Monday of every other September.

On this episode two of the three bros review Paper Girls Vol. 1 (one of us was busy, we didn't fire him). Written by Brian K. Vaughan with Art by Cliff Chiang.

Starting in 2020 we're looking into volume 2s! To start our dive deeper into series we've been intrigued by in past episodes, we're checking out Paper Girls Vol. 2. Then, we explore a brand new series with a dark twist on fantasy RPGs and a "trapped in the world of the game" story in Die Vol. 1.

In this week's episode, we review Paper Girls Vol. 1 and give our take on Pokemon Sword/Shield! Thanks for listening!- Eric & Jordan Follow us on Twitter/Instagram/Facebook @WhoDoPresents

Traditionell blutig mit Comics und Romanen Wenn man etwas zum zweiten Mal macht, ist es schon eine Tradition, oder? Daher: Im Oktober wird es bei uns traditionell (mindestens teilweise) blutig und gruselig.

Klar, denn neben Halloween ist im Oktober auch die Frankfurter Buchmesse, also wird es Zeit für dieses experimentelle Special. Außerdem versuchen wir unsere Comics zu zählen, Christin liest Bücher, die anderen Alpträume bescheren, Sandra hat 'nen (natürlich absichtlichen) Grusel-Hall mit der neuen Technik und Flori, the Destroyer übernimmt Arianes Rolle in unserer Runde.

This week we read the visually decadent first volume of Paper Girls. Listen as we follow these neighborhood paper distributers around their suburb as all sorts of hell (and space dinosaurs) break loose. This book left us with lots of burning questions: What is happening? What's so special about Erin? And when is Mac's redemption arc coming, cause the casual homophobia is getting a little long in the tooth.

Episode 29Please join Johnny, Frances, and Dennis in this episode of Graphic Novel Explorers Club as they discuss Paper Girls, Vol. 1 by writer Brian K. Vaughan and artist Cliff Chiang. Paper Girls, Vol. 1 is the story of four girls in 1988 who discover that not everything is as it seems in their sleepy little town while out delivering newspapers the day after Halloween. In this episode the gang discusses the 80s settings of the book; the four girls (Erin, MacKenzie, KJ and Tiffany) who make up the quartet; how Mack (MacKenzie) use insults from the 80s that would be considered homophobic or insensitive by today's standards; how Mack broke the “paper ceiling”; the use of Realistic by the paper girls; the possible influences of 80s pop culture like Jam and the Holograms, Mac and Me, and David Chronenberg The Fly; why you do not play with guns during The Rapture; the deciphered meaning of the “glyphs”; why future staff technology emits pink rays; where the future volumes of the story might be going; and our opinions about the storying telling and the art of Paper Girls, Vol. 1.Note: Johnny mentioned a movie that he could not remember the name of when the gang recorded this episode. The movie title is The Quiet Earth. He said it was an Australian film, when it is actually a New Zealand film (please forgive him, he was 10 years old when he saw the film). It is the story of a man and two other people who wake up to find the rest of the world has disappeared and their attempts to figure out what happened.--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/graphicnovelexplorersclub/message See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Unfortunately, a bit of Pete’s audio was cut out, during which time he regaled us with the story of Dread Pirate Roberts (no, not that one). Interested now? WIRED has a pretty great read for you. Originally posted by meeshmatched   Chapter II   [31:40] In Which We Discuss California Bookstore Day, the Rise of INDEPENDENT BOOKSTORE DAY, and Get to Hang Out with Samantha Independent Bookstore Day started as California Bookstore Day, which was initially inspired by Record Store Day.   April 30, 2016 (Kim’s Birthday!!) will be the second official Independent Bookstore Day.    Lauren Groff is the author ambassador. You might have heard of her. She wrote Obama’s favorite book of 2015: Fates & Furies. Green Apple is doing a shit ton of events, including an appearance from Green Apple’s mascot, Mergatroid; Kate Schatz, the author/illustator of Rad American Women A - Z; a local poet, Sylvie, writing custom poems; prize wheels; KEGS; and a free-throw shooting contest.   Mergatroid welcomes you to Independent Bookstore Day.

It looks fucking awesome.   Pete can be found on the internets via Green Apple’s Facebook & Twitter Go watch all of Green Apple’s videos on YouTube, particularly: Goooooogly Books (2011), The Book vs The Kindle (2009), and The New Hire (2013).   In other news, if you’re not following us on Twitter by now, it’s probably because you don’t have Twitter. But here’s where you can find us, in case you decide to join the Twitter-sphere: @drunkbookseller. Emma tweets @thebibliot and writes nerdy bookish things for Book Riot. Like, seriously nerdy, as evidenced by a recent post titled What the Cats of Neko Atsume are Reading.  Originally posted by popnographic   Kim tweets every few months or so at @finaleofseem, but mostly uses her Twitter account for off-the-clock communication with coworkers, who tend to send group messages on Twitter rather than just texting each other like normal people. Anyway, you can follow her there if you feel like it. Make sure you don’t miss an episode by subscribing to Drunk Booksellers from your podcatcher of choice. Also, if you read this far in the show notes, you are awesome and we love you and you should totes rate/review us on iTunes. Emma and Kim both have birthdays at the end of April, so a nice review would be the best of birthday presents. Other than copies of The Lesbian Sex Haiku Book (with Cats!) by Anna Pulley, which we’d both happily accept as well. Please send to WORD and/or The Elliott Bay Book Company, ATTN Drunk Booksellers. Thanks, and happy birthday to us. Originally posted by fineleathergifs

This month on The Comics Alternative's Young Readers series, the Two Hep Cats with PhDs Talking about Comics review three new releases that are different in terms of setting and genre, but take on a common theme: the conflict that can occur when the inhabitants of a city or a region are confronted by outsiders who wish to stake their claim on the land itself or to alter the daily lives of the indigenous people who have lived there for a very long time. Andy kicks off the show by introducing readers to another volume in Nathan Hale's popular historical fiction series for middle school readers, Nathan Hale's Hazardous Tales. The newest installment, Alamo All-Stars, presents a gripping tale of the battles that ensue among a number of groups who vie to take possession of the landmass that would eventually become the US state of Texas. As with other volumes in the series, the text begins as Nathan Hale, the captured Revolutionary War spy, extends his life by entertaining those British soldiers who are ordered to hang him for treason against the king. As Andy points out, even though the Alamo All-Stars focuses most specifically on the events leading up to and just after the battle at the Alamo in 1836, readers are encouraged to compare 19th-century immigration debates that set off conflicts between the Mexican government and the US immigrants, known as Texians, to the debates that continue today in relation to Mexican immigration to the US. In addition to highlighting Hale's ability to put forward a complicated geopolitical conflict in ways that are engaging and even, at times, gently humorous, Andy and Gwen point to the useful resources for young readers, including a bibliography of history texts on Texas and Mexican history, and helpful resources for teachers and parents, including study guides that are available from Amulet Books' website. Next, Gwen introduces Faith Erin Hicks's highly anticipated first volume in a fantasy graphic trilogy, The Nameless City, published by First Second and geared towards a middle-grade and high-school audience. The prologue introduces the reader to Daidu, a bustling city that sits in a strategic stretch of land that links a major river to the ocean. The narrator, a young explorer, notes that while "the City is named over and over" by conquering forces from the neighboring Dao, Laio, and Yisun Empires, no one has been able "to name it for long," so the indigenous people have chosen to call it the Nameless City and to call themselves "the nameless." As the story unfolds, Kai, the son of a prominent general from the Dao Empire, the city's current ruling power, travels to the Nameless City in order to train to become a warrior. However, Kai is more fascinated with books and learning and soon becomes acquainted with Rat, a homeless orphan whose parents were killed during the Dao conquest. Andy notes that while the friendship that grows between the characters might first appear to be right out of a clichéd "different side of the tracks" plot, Hicks's storytelling is far more sophisticated. As the narrative progresses, Rat and Kai learn from each other and join forces to encourage the city's rulers to see beyond their dismissive view of the indigenous culture. Both Andy and Gwen admire Jordie Bellaire's accomplished and effective work as colorist, and they point out Hicks's ability to depict characters in motion in ways that are both visually stunning and effective in moving the narrative along. The show concludes with a review of the first volume of Brian K. Vaughan and Cliff Chiang's teen sci-fi series, Paper Girls, a collection of the first five issues of the Image Comics series. Set in 1988 on the day after Halloween, the story follows four twelve-year-old paper carriers who find themselves caught in the midst of what appears to be an alien invasion. Gwen praises the realism of the setting and the convincing portrayal of female adolescence as strengths of the series, and Andy emphasizes how the darker side of the 1980s emerges as the text unfolds. While some of the violence and language marks this as a series for older teens, the two PhDs suggest that these elements add verisimilitude to the text. They also advise parents that while there are other Vaughan texts, such as the Runaways series, that would be a good follow up for teen readers, there are other titles that Vaughan has written that are definitely more appropriate for an adult audience. Both Gwen and Andy highly recommend Paper Girls, Vol. 1 and are eager to see what happens next in the series.
