Comic Dissection

Leisure EN ↓ 105 episodes

Every other week Cecilia Rose and Reno V take a comic and...well dissect it. They go page by page and discuss the highs and lows on everything from DC and Marvel to Manga and web comics from a intersectional leftist lens. And maybe they will learn a little along the way. Just kidding about that last part.
