Listen "Golgotha Motor Mountain"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a text"Grief is the ether-like fumes of memory evaporating into nothingness. But from nothing, things can appear. From the void and blackness, magic can arrive."In this one-shot episode, Mike and Alex travel to the backwoods of Kentucky to discuss Golgotha Motor Mountain by Matthew Erman, Lonnie Nadler, and Robbi Rodriguez from IDW Publishing. They guys break down the larger extended metaphor played out through the story and try and drill down on why stories about these communities seem to be having a moment right now. Then they turn their attention to the story construction and presentation, praising the art and letter work, and working through why they found the comic compelling and interesting despite not really connecting with any of the characters. Finally, the guys look at the ending and try and process what it means if in order to get the thing you want, you end up burning down everything you left behind.We hope you enjoyed this wild, grotesque, southern-fried horror story, and stay tuned next week for what we hope to be a special episode. After that, join us here again next week to dive into another great comic!Thanks for listening to Storied Arcs Find us on your favorite podcast platform and leave a 5-star review!
