In our October roundup podcast we discuss a new line of early readers by Harper Colins dedicated to comics, Lumberjanes going to HBO as an animated series and an article that appeared on The Conversation discussing fake news and how comics can be useful for media literacy purposes and helping readers to develop critical reading skills.

We mention new titles by Australian creators:

• Under Earth by Chris Gooch (Top Shelf)
• Sherlock Bones and the Sea Creature Feature - Renee Treml (Allen & Unwin)

The team also highlights their favourite picks for the month:
