Comic Sans is a podcast about comics for the curious, hosted by seasoned reader Myle Yan Tay and page-flipping newbie Nathaniel Mah.
Every episode, we dive into a new comic, talk about what we love, and break down how stories are told using the tools of the comic book trade.
We read all kinds of comics from all over the world — from classic crime capers, to romcom sports manga, to postcolonial vampire tales — and give you just enough context to read along with us.
So whether you're looking for your first comic or your five hundredth, come join us on Comic Sans!
S04E12: The Five-Foot-Way Detective — Flip-Flops on the Red Carpet
Trophies? Polished. Audience? Seated. Shrimp? Cocktailed. The inaugural Comic Sans Awards are about to begin… but where are the hosts?! Don't tell me they're running around the alleyways of 1950s Singapore, busting crooks and solving crimes with "The Five-Foot-Way Detective" by Joshua Chiang! Please, somebody call them… our venue deposit — and season finale — are on the line!
