Marci and Ako are back with another episode in their Summer Short Series! This week, they’ll be discussing Pornsak Pichetshote’s horror comic, Infidel. 

Picture this--a warm summer night, a smoldering campfire, Marci, Ako, and a mutual friend sitting around a campfire. The friend clicks on her flashlight app and places her phone just below her chin lighting up her face in a very spooky fashion. She lowers her voice and asks the two “has anyone ever heard of the racist ghosts that they say haunts apartments in New York Cit--wait where are y’all going?!” Ako, much to her chagrin, found herself suddenly and ANNOYINGLY abducted by extraterrestrials and Marci, well Marci had immediately called one of any dozen ride-share services and headed back towards town, the ancestors did not get him this far just to get haunted by a ghost story!
