The music by La’l Tethera was excellent (our @michimathias.bsky.social is a mean fiddle player herself and if she is impressed you know they were good) Apologies for missing the lovely host’s name - perfect southern drawl for a late night or early morning and very warm style

My copy came in the mail just now and, despite my best intentions to only skim through the first few pages and get back to other things I need to do, I haven’t been able to put it down since. It definitely deserves a place on your shelf, next to your copy of Understanding Comics.
