Storied Arcs
Welcome to Storied Arcs! A read-along deep dive into comics, one story arc at a time...
In each episode, we will discuss one story arc, typically in the form of a trade paperback, for a completed comic series. In general, we will be avoiding ongoing or continuing series so that we can discuss a work in its entirety.
We’ll also be avoiding the “big two” (Marvel and DC.) While we love those comics, there are plenty of podcasts covering characters like Batman, Superman, Spiderman, and so on. Instead, we’re excited to explore some of the great creator-owned stories. We’ll deep dive into the story while evaluating the prose, art, and all the easter eggs we can find.

Intro to Home Sick Pilots & Creator Spotlight: Dan Watters, Caspar Wijngaard, and Aditya Bidikar
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
On this season of Storied Arcs, Mike and Alex travel back into the 90s to discuss Home Sick Pilots by Dan Watters and Caspar Wijngaard from Image Comics! The guys start with a quick rundown of the creative team, including letterer Aditya Bidikar, before giving a quick synopsis of the book and what they are looking for in the story. Power Rangers meets The Shining? Sure, why not.
We kick things off next week with Volume 1: Teenage Haunts (issues #1-5) so pick it up wherever you get your comics and join us back here to dive into it all!
