It is an age of Desperados.... but the greatest outlaw of them all, M.Godspeed is dead. Killed by his own son, Jimmu, the boy shows up with his father's corpse in a steal, cross-shaped coffin not to claim the bounty, but to hand him in as proof of his convictions. Jimmu Godspeed is not his father. In fact, Jimmu Godspeed wants to be the Marshall that will put an end to the age of Desperados once and for alll! But upon enrolling in the prestigious US Marshall Training Institute, his classmates can't help but wonder: is there more to Jimmu than meets the eye?

On this week's episode, Mat is joined once again by his podcasting partner in crime, Tom to discuss The Marshal King by Boichi: a book that almost feels like a smoothie made of every book we've ever discussed on the podcast together!

Join us as we discuss Boichi rising to the challenge of aiming to create a manga conceived for the global stage, get into the book's love for the capital C 'COOL' moments of every major manga of the last 40 years, before facing the toughest question of all: how do you pick an MVP in a book that's literally full of them!

Is there anything more terrifying than a curse spread by a simple touch? Those who bare such a tragic fate turn into monsters and are simply known as Outsides, while those who remain human get to live inside the castle walls. But when such an Outsider finds a little girl, named Shiva, who despite supposedly being touched by a curse being exhibits none of the usual signs, Teacher as she begins to call him, decides to look after her... but fate has other ideas!

On this week's episode, Mat is joined once again by designer and artist, Allie Oldfield, to discuss The Girl From The Other Side: Siúil, a Rún by Nagabe!
