Podcast Episode 007. Spirit Archives + Agora

The seventh episode features Agora, the 2009 film about the philosopher Hypatia of Alexandria that highlights the struggle between Christianity and paganism in the Late Roman Empire, and Will Eisner's Spirit Archives, the hardcover collection of Will Eisner's classic Spirit strips.

Topics of discussion include the Roman empire converting to Christianity, the difficulty of including long term historical processes in narrative films and struggling to come to terms with Will Eisner being a technical virtuoso of sequential art while being super racist.
