“The Arrival” by Shaun Tan
<p>What does it take to tell a wordless story? Today, the panelists explore that question as Jillian guides Matt and Scout through the fantastical immigrant story of The Arrival by Shaun Tan. Together, we muse on the power of reaching out and sharing our stories to bring us closer together, even when we feel worlds apart. (And also, discuss the immutable staying power of a weird little guy.)</p><p><br></p><ul><li>(00:00) - “The Arrival” by Shaun Tan</li> <li>(00:21) - Front Matter</li> <li>(01:52) - Our experience with The Arrival</li> <li>(04:17) - Zero words!</li> <li>(08:35) - The antique photo style</li> <li>(10:29) - Dark gutters!</li> <li>(12:13) - SPOILER ZONE</li> <li>(12:44) - Symmetry</li> <li>(14:35) - The creature</li> <li>(15:19) - Not the real world but very real</li> <li>(18:12) - Kinship with the main character </li> <li>(19:50) - Moments that stuck with us</li> <li>(27:16) - The final page</li> <li>(32:07) - Familiars</li> <li>(38:02) - Studying this book</li> <li>(42:51) - Further reading</li> </ul><br><strong>Further Reading</strong><ul><li>Tan has written and illustrated several other books, with his other most notable being “The Lost Thing”</li><li>Tan’s essay on the picture book: <a href="https://www.shauntan.net/esssay-picture-books-who-for">https://www.shauntan.net/esssay-picture-books-who-for</a></li><li><a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/daytripper-fabio-moon/9778460e49ead5a9?ean=9781401229696&next=t&next=t&affiliate=2186&prhc=PRHEFFDF5A7F1">Daytripper</a> by Fabio Moon & Gabriel Ba</li><li>Nonfiction graphic novels about the experience of immigrants and refugees are a genre all in their own - there’s a lot out there for you to take your pick from!

"Hirayasumi" by Keigo Shinzo
<p>Today, it's just vibes. Your Panelists discuss Hirayasumi, the sliciest slice-of-life manga to ever exist. This vacation of a read hits on burnout and what it means to be an artist, both favorite topics for the show. But it primarily is the story of Hiroto and his cousin, Natsumi, living in a home left to Hiroto by a woman he called "Granny." </p><p><br></p><ul><li>(00:00) - “Hirayasumi” by Keigo Shinzo</li> <li>(01:54) - A vibe check</li> <li>(06:20) - Narration vs using space</li> <li>(11:05) - There IS conflict between characters</li> <li>(12:40) - Natsumi stands out</li> <li>(13:23) - Fashion Corner!</li> <li>(14:56) - Natsumi & Akari</li> <li>(15:33) - SPOILER ZONE</li> <li>(15:50) - Yuri spinoff?</li> <li>(18:15) - So…Hideki?</li> <li>(22:26) - Hiroto’s passivity</li> <li>(26:16) - Tachibana</li> <li>(29:27) - Is the author a serial killer?</li> <li>(30:35) - We love Granny</li> <li>(35:23) - How Granny shapes Hiroto’s life</li> <li>(39:03) - Art! 🖼️ </li> <li>(43:23) - Hiroto’s acting</li> <li>(44:55) - Natsumi becoming a mangaka</li> <li>(46:42) - Further Reading</li> </ul><br><strong>Further Reading</strong><p>- <a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/smoking-behind-the-supermarket-with-you-01-jinushi/ad61e4cede5d43dd?ean=9781646092864&next=t">Smoking Behind the Supermarket With You</a> by Jinushi<br>- <a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/skip-and-loafer-vol-1-misaki-takamatsu/69bc98ac7c620c2d?ean=9781648275883&next=t">Skip to Loafer</a> by Misaki Takamatsu<br>- <a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/tokyo-alien-bros-vol-1-keigo-shinzo/74614fa62d57dc19?ean=9781974747290&next=t">Tokyo Alien Bros.</a> by Keigo Shinzo <br>- <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sakura_Quest">Sakura Quest</a> anime<br>- <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laid-Back_Camp">Yuru Camp/Laid-Back Camp </a>anime </p><p>A comics podcast for everyone, proud to be a part of <a href="https://theworstgarbage.online/">The Worst Garbage</a> network.</p><p>Find us on <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/insequence.pictures">Bluesky</a> or <a href="https://insequence.tumblr.com/">Tumblr</a>.</p><p>This week’s panelists can be found at:<br><a href="https://bsky.app/profile/humblegoat.bsky.social">Scout</a><br><a href="https://matthorton.live/">Matt</a><br><a href="https://bsky.app/profile/robinbombus.bsky.social">Robin</a></p><p><a href="https://plottwists.carrd.co/">Jillian</a></p><p>Editing this week by <a href="https://ajfillari.carrd.co/">AJ Fillari</a>.<br>Cover art by <a href="https://scoutwilkinson.myportfolio.com/">Scout Wilkinson</a>.<br>Intro/Outro music by <a href="https://boqeh.bandcamp.com/track/tape">Boqeh</a>.</p>
