Back Matter is our roundtable discussion show focused on discussion that doesn’t make it into our main show, including interviews, news and events in the comics industry, television and movies, or discussions of comics which open onto a broader conversation. Feel free to email us discussion ideas or any comments or questions you might have at contact@viewfromthegutters.com.

On this episode of Back Matter our hosts discuss the line between art and artist when an artist commits acts or espouses beliefs with you disagree with morally.

WARNING: On this episode our conversation includes the frank discussion of sexual and domestic assault, as well as other topics which might be distressing to some listeners. None of the discussion is graphic, but if hearing about these topics is troubling for you, we recommend you listen to a different episode of the show.

Our Ms. Marvel episode from yesterday is basically a hug-fest, so be sure to check that one out if you haven’t yet.

Our hosts for this episode are Joe Preti,  Tobiah Panshin, Kayleigh Fleeman, Audrey Preti, and Michael Martin.
