As regular listeners will know, I spent seven years living in the greater Puget Sound area and despite having lived in eight different states, it’s one of two places that will always be home to me. There’s something about small Washington State towns that can feel delightfully out of time and there’s no greater contrast to them than the technology centric hub that is Seattle crowned by its futuristic Space Needle. It elicits a range of complex emotions as a former local that the visitor will never understand primary among them is a clash between modern advancement and the struggle of smaller coastal communities to hold onto their ways of life and cultural identities. This was my personal filter going into reading The Stoneshore Register, a delightful new graphic novel from Dark Horse Comics and I have the perfect person to hang out to tell us all about it, first time guest G. Willow Wilson.

Yes, I do go off on a bit of a tangent about gardening but we'll call that a Poison Ivy interlude, and we wrap things up covering what we can expect to see in Marvel's new ongoing Black Cat series.

The Stoneshore Register

From the publisher

When refugee and aspiring journalist Fadumo arrives to work at the Stoneshore Register, she is entering a far stranger place than she realizes. 

At first, the colossal stone giant overlooking the rundown, seemingly ordinary Pacific Northwest fishing town seems like the only remarkable element. But he is not the only strange surprise: changelings, selkies, cursed ships—the bizarre has a home in Stoneshore, yet no one gives it a second thought.

But Fadumo doesn't just want to cover these odd occurrences. She wants to dig deeper. And what she discovers is a land so steeped in mysterious history, it will change all who dare to explore it.

Black Cat

From the publisher

Super-thief, super... Hero?! Felicia Hardy is the Black Cat, the world's slyest and most skilled super-thief! She loves a good score. The longer the odds — the better! But her entire world turned upside down after the Amazing Spider-Man's battle with Hellgate, so Felicia is turning over a new leaf as New York City's newest... super hero?! The first super villain on her list — the Lizard! But will the Black Cat risk it all after her do-gooding moral high ground attracts dangerous attention from the lowest of the city's underworld? Easy, Kingpin of Crime, she's still skimming off the top — honest! Superstar G. Willow Wilson joins rising star Gleb Melnikov to chart the winding road of twists and turns, laughs and mind-bending action of Black Cat's next exciting chapter!
