Well folks, summer is coming to an end once more. So as a last sunshiney hoorah we are talking about two queer summer camp comics with our first ever guest - Portland based “author, poet, and homosexual” Mack W. Mani! In addition to diving into our two books we also discuss the ways queerness and summer camp are linked, what Mack’s been working on, and of course that sweet sweet discourse.
