This is America
Heya,
fellow comics enthusiasts! In this episode, everymen Chris (@AceComics)
and Reggie (@reggiereggie) do a little gazing at someone else's navel
when they read Harvey Pekar's American Splendor #1 from 1976!
After some biographical information, peppered with lots of quotes from
the subject himself, our pair go through every story in this 52-page
anthology, providing information on all of the contributing artists
(including Robert Crumb) as they go. Then, after a break, our
eavesdroppers discuss the details and impact of American Splendor, and wrap up the life of Harvey Pekar as well. It's an episode packed with the mundanity of life, you don't want to miss it!
