Panels in Motion, Episode 4: “Ghost World”

Welcome to Panels in Motion, a monthly podcast where hosts Nick, Andre, and Luke discuss non-superhero comic books and their movie adaptations. Whether it’s old or new, American or international, the hosts seek to answer the questions: What makes a good adaptation? What’s the difference between comics and film? And who in their right mind approved some of these decisions??

Get ready to explore the 90s underground comics scene as we cover Dan Clowes’s Ghost World and the 2001 film adaptation. Includes shocking revelations about Shia LaBeouf and the number of books Luke owns, alongside discussion of the bad kind of punk, documentary style, and Clerks II.

Material discussed:
– “Ghost World” graphic novel by Daniel Clowes
– Ghost World (2001) movie, dir. Terry Zwigoff

NEXT MONTH: “Barbarella” vol 1 graphic novel by Jean-Claude Forest + Barbarella (1968) movie.
