Capitalism in Comic Books

Our culture vultures are back once again to cultivate your minds with the latest in pop culture happenings. Kam brings up the heated discourse surrounding the infamous Nasi Lemak burger and ponders on the phenomenon of ‘food ownership’. Grey then shares his thoughts on how he thinks technology is making our attention spans towards reading long term shorter and shorter. Finally, fresh off his pilgrimage to San Diego, Uma gives us an insight on the lively, colourful world of Comic Con.
