A fun episode where our Video Hoser hosts revisit Canadian/Ontario based comics nostalgia touchstones such as Canadian-produced, old-skool documentary, Comic Book Confidential, comic book store the Silver Snail and TVO program Prisoners of Gravity, among other stuff, and discuss with Caitlin McGurk, Curator of Comics and Cartoon Art at Ohio’s Billy Ireland Cartoon Library and Museum. Much fun! Some great Chester Brown stories around the 41 minute mark, where Caitlin tells us how Chester was instrumental in her decision to pursue a career as a comics librarian!
