"And I suppose this has been the problem from the very start. The fundamental crack in civilization that has always set us against each other- mistaking productivity for value."
In the final episode of Season 5 of Stories Arcs, Mike and Alex leap into the not-so-distant future to chat about Mark Russell and Mike Deodato, Jr.'s Eisner-award winning Not All Robots Volume 1 (issues 1-5). They dive deep into the idea of resentment and misplaced blame and discuss how the premise of the comic allows Russell and Deodato to pointedly address the issues they are satirizing (toxic masculinity, what about-ism, etc.). The guys also reflect back on the topics and ideas presented in The Flintstones and connect the modern Stone Age family to the Walters family of 2056 and their government-assigned robot, Razorball.
That puts a bow on anther season of Storied Arcs! We'll be back soon to dive deep into another great comic. See you then!
