Halloween may be past us, but the scariest day of the year has yet to arrive. You know what I'm talking about...ELECTION DAY! Oh, the horror! The suspense is killing me! It's like the tagline for Alien vs. Predator - "Whoever Wins...We Lose." And the spectacle is going to be just as painful to watch as that movie was! Who needs to watch horror movies when real life is already so scary?

So in honor of these scary days, we've invited all-around comics connoisseur and horror homie Casey "MinovskyArticle" to come on the show and delve into the depraved domain of horror manga. From the screwy spirals of Junji Ito to the killer cocks of Kazuo Umezu and everything in between, Casey provides some fantastic and frightening recommendations that will haunt your dreams and keep you up at night all year round!

Other topics we cover include Seven Seas' tidal wave of new manga licenses, new E-book services, upcoming manga contests, DMP's Under the Air & The Crater Kickstarter and a whole lot more!
