Episode 56: Traveling to Mars
We're back! And this episode, we're reading a comic from one of our favorite contemporary writers, or at least one of our most-referenced, Mark Russell. Traveling to Mars may be the most contemporary series we've covered, an 11-issue epic following a terminal cancer patient's journey to become the first human to set foot on the red planet, and claim it for the Easy Beef Corporation. Along the way we get some robot shenanigans, one man's critical appraisal of his life, and the beautiful story of a fish called Leroy Brown.Next, on Crying in the Book Club: We're heading to a galaxy far, far and away for the comic that inspired everyone's favorite Star Wars movie: Dark Empire.Our theme music was composed by our wonderful friend Gwyn.

Episode 54: Gunjo
We're closing out Pride Month with a classic Emily-core pick in Gunjo, a toxic yuri manga about two lesbians who fucking hate each other. But also love each other. And also commit all kinds of crimes. I would call it fun but it's actually grim and sorta depressing.Next, on Crying in the Book Club: We're going back to the X-Men for God Loves, Man KillsOur theme music was composed by our wonderful friend Gwyn.
