Description:

Brian and Sam begin a time of real focus, looking at comic book arcs or graphic novels. This episode opens this series with a soft transition from our discussion of the Wonder Woman 1984 film to a major arc of Gail Simone's run in Wonder Woman. Issues #26-33, "Rise of the Olympian", was written by the great author, Gail Simone, with art by Aaron Lopresti.

While we discuss our reaction to the  work itself, we dive deep into some theological reflection of the story. Loss, struggle, and character make up a good bit of this arc. And that Zeus is really awful.
