Speaking of giant monsters, this episode we discuss Kaiju Girl Caramelise. It’s the story of a young girl who turns into a giant, city-crushing monster when she gets too emotional. Now …
This week we are joined by Nika Howard of the “Greetings, Adventurers!” podcast (among many other fun projects) to discuss the spookiest of spooky comics, The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.
