Dudes rock...and they also suck and f**k. This week it's a boys' love grab bag where we dive into four different, largely monster-f**kery volume ones and discuss our (spoiler-heavy) first impressions of the following series:

 

- Monster and the Beast by Renji

- Birds of Shangri-La by Ranmaru Zariya

- Dick Fight Island by Reibun Ike

- Fangs by Billy Balibally

Disclaimer: this episode contains spoilers for Neon Genesis Evangelion including the original anime, manga, End of Evangelion, and Rebuild series (including 3.0+1.0). Content-wise, Eva discussion brings every warning you could think of. Sexual assault, death, extreme violence and gore, etc. 

 

Evangelion is finally over! ...again. This week we're talking all things Evangelion from the OG to End of to the new ending that just dropped. We discuss the sci-fi set dressing of the Evas and Angels, the main characters and how successfully their thematic arcs are handled, and how the various iterations of the franchise stack up for us personally. Stan Kaworu.

This week's episode is a spoilercast discussion of Chainsaw Man creator Tatsuki Fujimoto's newest one-shot, Look Back. It's a manga about manga (don't worry, it's not cringeworthy), validation, grief, and just generally being alive. TLDR: It's pretty great.

After a week off, your favorite gay leftist manga podcast is back...with an episode about Superman. We dive deep into Superman: Red Son and All-Star Superman: two highly regarded stories about the Man of Steel, one of which is worthy of all its acclaim. Plus, we spend twenty minutes just hashing out our differences when it comes to what we think of Supes as a character to begin with. Spoiler: Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely are still the best team in comics. 

Content warning: We’re a fairly NSFW podcast that makes frequent use of reclaimed homophobic slurs. We also discuss a scene in which characters deal with a suicide attempt and suicidal ideation.
