Listen Later

In Episode 10 of Out To Get You, we are joined by Eisner Award-Winning Women Write About Comics' small press editor and writer, Kat Overland, to debug the soul of Alex Garland's 2014 psychological thriller, Ex Machina.


Content Warning:


This episode contains discussion of racism, medical/technological torture, slavery, colonialism, misogyny, dicks who have way too much money, and other topics that may be sensitive for listeners. 


In this episode, we discuss the terrifying onus of consciousness through the lens of technocratic overreach, the lie of the great man, and the horror of who pays the price for progress, in this slow burn sci-fi nightmare starring Alicia Vikander, Domhnall Gleeson, and Oscar Isaac.


You can follow Kat on Bluesky, and check out more about her work, as well as Ex Machina: A (White) Feminist Parable for Our Time by J. A. Micheline, and much more, at Women Write About Comics (@WWAComics on Bluesky.)
