Episode 31 - Tropic of the Sea

In this episode of the biweekly podcast, The Art of Comics, creators Paul Duffield and Jaws Stone continue Mermay with a discussion of the environmental mermaid drama, Tropic of the Sea, by Satoshi Kon.

As usual, this is an in-depth discussion, and there'll be spoilers for the story and content of the comic, so you might want to pause now, read the book and listen once you've had your own reaction. The episode is designed to work regardless of whether you've read it or not, so if you don't mind spoilers, dive right in!

Next episode we'll be starting off pride month with a discussion of Our Dreams at Dusk by Yuhki Kamatani, so if you want to read along with us, pick up a copy and read it over the next two weeks.
