Show Notes
Sure, comics are great for fantastical stories, but they can tell intimate, personal stories as well -- or sometimes the personal and the fantastical mix well. Artist and writer Pidge is the creator of the series Infinite Wheatpaste, which employs this method. Avery Hill has just published a collection of the series, called Infinite Wheatpaste vol 1: Catalytic Conversions. This week Pidge talks with Emmet about her attraction to the comics medium, but concern that it doesn't cover all the aspects of life that it could: "Having coffee with your friend is worth putting in a comic."
