Episode 32


Join Johnny, Frances, and Dennis in this episode of Graphic Novel Explorers Club as they discuss the horror anthology Through the Woods by writer and artist Emily Carroll. The five stories in the book are \\u201cOur Neighbor\\u2019s House,\\u201d \\u201cA Lady\\u2019s Hands Are Cold,\\u201d \\u201cMy Friend Janna,\\u201d \\u201cHis Face All Red,\\u201d and \\u201cThe Nesting Place\\u201d.


In this episode the gang discusses what the possible themes and meanings of the five stories of Through the Woods could be; the possible connections of the number \\u201c3\\u201d and the woods; if the quality of paper chosen to print a comic book effects the reader\\u2019s opinion of the storytelling and art; how the second story, \\u201cA Lady\\u2019s Hands Are Cold\\u201d, brought back memories of Bluebeard starring Richard Burton; which story reminded us \\u201cThe Babadook\\u201c, V.C. Andrews, and the poem \\u201cBluebird\\u201d by Charles Bukowski; and the storytelling and the art of Through the Woods.

Correction: Johnny mentions that the animated opening for Masterpiece Theater was created by Richard Scarry, when it fact it was created by Edward Gorey and for Mystery!, not Masterpiece Theater.
