On this week\'s episode. Brian and Darci cover the 2019 graphic novel, Dragon Hoops by Gene Luen Yang. They spend over an hour going over everything from basketball, to racism, to the general treatment of youth athletes. It\'s a great graphic novel that is packed with a lot of information, so there is a lot to talk about this week. Also, Brian breaks the rules slightly and talks about the Milestone Comics revival and Darci continues the conversation from last episode about the work of cartoonist Vernon Grant. Other books discussed in this episode are By The Horns #1, Jonna and the Unpossible Monsters #1 and the upcoming Tidesong by Wendy Xu.
