Blame! Part 1

Imagine, you're wandering a seemingly endless expanse of concrete and steel. Pipes line the wall and light shines from places you can't reach. Down the hall you hear three voices... the voices of the Bog Frog Book Pod! We're talking all about Nihei's debut masterpiece Blame! James is having Big Thoughts, Seth is declaring people moe, and Wren learns to appreciate a new facet of Nihei's art! All this and more on the first ep of our latest unit: James' Vacation Homes!
