S5E6 - Howard the Duck: Howard and the All-Night Party - a podcast by The SJW Comic Book Club

How does an anthropomorphic alien duck get elected president? Spoiler alert: he doesn't, but it's the journey that counts.

This week we take a break from the heavy and the dark to read Howard the Duck: Howard and the All-Night Party (Howard the Duck (1976) #8-9). This surprisingly funny piece of satire explores the themes of political cynicism, the folly of Middle America, and the paradox of Canadian patriotism.

Next week, we will be reading Daredevil: Wake Up (Daredevil (1998) #16-19). (Content warning: child abuse & domestic violence.) We invite you to read along with us.

Monte's theme for Season 5 is Cult Classics Adapted to Screen. Veronica's theme is Detectives and Mysteries.
