This week, Joe McCulloch, Chris Mautner and Tucker Stone zero in on manga, first opening with Tucker's bizarrely out of proportion complaints regarding mega popular manga Gantz, and then leading into Chris and Joe discussing Bakuman. Bakuman? Oh yeah, you read that correctly: and of course, that leads into the conversation of art versus commerce, which is when the crew touches on Joe Kubert, who had passed away only a few hours prior to recording. Then, they get into Kickstarter, wherein things get difficult: Joe gets funny, Tucker goes off the rails, and Chris keeps trying to make everything comprehensible. (Joe ended up winning.)
