Taylor brings Analog from Image Comics to the chat today. It's a current book whose story is based in 2024. In that near future, everyone in the world has been mass-doxxed. With digital privacy done for, the people who can afford it employ "Paper Jockeys" to transport valuable information via analog means.

Todd talks about the absolutely vital, Shirtless Bear Fighter. It's a comic book about a guy who fights bears and doesn't wear a shirt.

We posted this a week ahead of time so we don't know if today's pick is made more terrifying by the outcome of the midterm elections. Taylor talks about Infidel--a horror story that's also an allegory about racism and xenophobia.

This episode would have been so much more impactful if I had my act together and posted it on Halloween. That's on me. Anyway, here is our Halloween episode. Todd talks about Harrow County Vol 1: Countless Haints. This is a great read for fans of Stranger Things or the X-Files but it will definitely leave you wanting more. It's the story of a young woman discovering her connection to an ancient, cursed magic.

On this episode of Panelism, Taylor talks about Local from Oni Press. It's a Bildungsroman about a young woman named Megan told in 12 chapters (originally single issues). In stunning black and white images, the artwork alone is worth a look.

On this episode of Panelism, Todd talks about Domino (2018) by Gail Simone and David Baldeon. It's a cool take on a b-lister character with old and new characters and plenty of snappy dialogue.

Welcome to the 2nd episode of Panelism (or 87th episode from Todd and Taylor). Today, Todd talks about Chelsea Cain's Mockingbird run. It was a great concept for a B-lister in the Marvel Universe (Mockingbird, not Chelsea) that was cancelled too soon. Todd discusses both volumes that exist.

New name, new format for the old Coffee and Comics Club. We liked that name but we had some competition. We're introducing a new name with this episode and a new format. We each talk about one comic but we are publishing those chats as separate episodes. The result is a shorter episode length and the ability for you to quickly find an episode you might like. Today, Taylor talks about the graphic novel based on Neil Young's concept album, Green Dale. Let us know how you like the new stuff at http://findusthere.org.

Todd brings Descender Vol 1 by Jeff Lemire and Dustin Nguyen and talks about how it didn't hook him on his first read. Taylor throws a curveball and talks about the 60s TV series, The Prisoner.

It's another "unusual" episode. Taylor discusses Solid State -- a graphic novel imagined by Jonathan Coulton based on his concept album, written by Matt Fraction and illustrated by Albert Monteys. Dystopia or just absurdity? It's a weird and sometimes chilling look at the future. Then Todd talks about the YA novel Chaotic Good by Whitney Gardner. D&D, cosplay, conventions, trolls, bullies, LGBTQ+ issues -- this story has a lot of layers.
