Today your Panelists discuss what makes autobiography good, marvel at the eccentricity of this book's art, and learn the value of good criticism. Never forget to eat your vegetables and pull some weeds.

Updated the reading list over on insequence.pictures If you're looking to read along with the show, the list is always available on the website

A light read just hits different when it immediately follows a long one, don't you think? Today, Matt introduces his fellow panelists to Hirayasumi, a manga by Keigo Shinzo that highlights the mundane, everyday problems that adulthood forces us to overcome.

You can now read one of our favorite picks from last year's Short Box Comic Fair and one of the favorite picks from our Christmas 2025 episode! @kelpienet.bsky.social has made Exo available on Itch! It's stupid how good this book is.

In our first of 3 Fullmetal Alchemist episodes, we share our varied personal histories with the series, become acquainted with the cast and their early adventures, and answer some listener questions.

Unsure what comic or manga to read next? Here's our upcoming reads for the show! This list is kept up to date over on insequence.pictures

We don't have Robin on this episode, but don't you worry. Because there's SO MANY Robins in this book. Today your panelists cover Batman: Wayne Family Adventures Season 1 by CRC Payne and @starbite.bsky.social

Today, Robin guides Jillian and Scout through the fuzzy and merciless landscape of Mouse Guard. Come with us on an adventure in woodland politics. Did you know the mice have swords now?

We read Persepolis by French-Iranian cartoonist Marjane Satrapi, a work very relevant to our current moment - even more so now than when we recorded. Join us for a discussion of the familiar shapes oppression takes and the humanity that suffers beneath its mantle

Today, @63choux.bsky.social joins the panel to talk about Blue Period by Tsubasa Yamaguchi! We cover the first 6 volumes and dive deep on the complicated ordeal of pursuing an art career, and the mortifying ordeal of being known. Oh and also rampant transphobia. insequence.pictures/episodes/blu...

What does it look like to tell a story about prejudice but divorced from real-world analogues? What does it mean to tie concepts of hunger and desire together inexorably? Just how much money is cow bathwater going for these days? insequence.pictures/episodes/bea...

Today the panelists talk Frontier, a French graphic novel written and illustrated by @blackysan.bsky.social Join us as we discuss hope among dystopia and how pacing complicates an otherwise incredible story. insequence.pictures/episodes/fro...

happy holidays to girls with big swords ⚔️

Gay and trans robots. It's the law.

Physically impossible #orufrey

"Veil" by Kotteri is a "will they, won't they, are they already?" romance and a gorgeous display of fashion and art. This full color manga that started as the mangaka posting their OCs on Twitter made for incredible conversation on the latest episode. insequence.pictures/episodes/vei...

It is WILD that this show is over. I've been listening since the beginning. This show led to @alexjaffe.bsky.social being a guest on @cantletitgo.gay. It led to me reading Gotham Central and becoming a Renée Montoya-head. It served as inspiration for @insequence.pictures Congrats Alex and Gita 💖

Forget black Friday and cyber Monday. Go to your library. Pick up volumes 1-9 of Witch Hat Atelier and read them. Listen to @insequence.pictures talk about Witch Hat Atelier. I promise it'll be more fun.

This episode’s got a little something for everyone. Discussions of the responsibilities adults have to the children in their lives, deep dives into art technique and execution, boys who are probably in love, girls who are probably in love, me almost crying about burnout,

SBCF closes today at 8pm UK time! I want to take a moment to say a heartfelt thank you to all the fair artists, and to the wonderful SBCF readership for their support. After 12+ years of knocking about in comics, I'll be taking a break next year, but hope to be back in 2027. Zainab✨🌻

We go broad with the word "comics." Manga, zine, web, cape. All comics. Today we went broader, as @ajfillari.bsky.social came on to guest host and talk about Triangle Agency. It's a TTRPG rulebook that uses visual storytelling in some very comic book-y ways! insequence.pictures/episodes/tri...

In our first spooky season episode, @humblegoat.bsky.social and @matt.bsky.social discuss "The Department of Truth" by James Tynion IV and Martin Simmonds. This horror series about conspiracy theories and disinformation has art that barely looks like a comic book. share.transistor.fm/s/ffd86523
