In this episode, Kofi and Kadi discuss Paper Angels, a comic book by Kudzai Gumbo and Rodney Ngundu from Zimbabwe. In typical Squid CoW fashion, we break down the review into things we like (likies), don’t like (urgh) and what we’re looking forward to (infinity and beyond).
We also share some of the projects, news and events we’re most excited about for 2020 such as Shesha Fest by Cartoon Network Africa, Accra Animation Film Festival 2020, Legend on Yasuke by TAG Comics and more.

KaDi Yao Tay
KaDi Yao Tay is an improving social inept constantly navigating the maze of human interactions in a bid to figure out his place in the world. He has an unbridled love for kelewele (spicy fried plantain) and abuses the word "chale", chale. He also sucks at soccer video games and absolutely won't play against you. Do not ask! Oh, also, editor-in-chief on this site, producer of the Accra Animation Film Festival and co-founder of the Alikoto Comic Book Prize.
