Plume Volumes 3 & 4
Manage episode 378847807 series 3364947
"Revenge is for the selfish, justice is for the brave."
In this episode, Mike and Alex head back to the wild, wild West and dive deep into the concluding arc of Plume by K. Lynn Smith with Volumes 3 and 4 (issues #10-17). They revisit the litany of Western-genre story tropes and discuss how Smith was able to once again subvert those genre expectations and deliver an ending that's both surprising and satisfying. Plume's a classic hero's journey that feels both familiar and new at the same time. But that doesn't mean the guys don't have some lingering questions, which they examine and debate with the full understanding that most of it is trivial and none of it takes away from their enjoyment of the comic. Nitpicking the minutia is kinda the whole get-down of this show.
That wraps up our deep-dive discussion of Plume but that doesn't mean we're done with the book quite yet. Next week, the one and only K. Lynn Smith will be joining us to discuss not only Plume but her entire career in comics. We can't wait to share another exclusive interview with an incredible creator with everyone!
