It's time for Grant Morrison to ask ”whodunnit?” and your hosts to ask ”why do we care?” That's right, it's Morrison's cooldown arc from the past few heavy-hitting storylines, Murder at the Mansion! But don't skip this one, listeners, because Josie and Becca are joined by an incredible guest: Marvel comics writer Evan Narcisse! Evan joins the girls to discuss this Bishop-centered story, as well as race and representation in media as a whole.
