Asian American History 101
A Conversation with Award-Winning Illustrator and Comic Artist Christie Shinn

Asian American History 101

Welcome to Season 4, Episode 18! Free Comic Book Day is coming soon… not to mention Asian American Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander Heritage Month, so as a lead-up to this confluence, we had a conversation with the Ringo Award-winning illustrator and comic artist, Christie Shinn of HoraTora Studios. If you're in Southern California on May 4th and 5th, you can meet Christie, other API creators, and some non-API comic book creators at The Comic Bug in Manhattan Beach (May4th) and Culver City (May 5th).  Christie won the 2018 Ringo Award for Best Anthology for her work on Mine! a comics collection to benefit Planned Parenthood. She is the President of CAPS (Comic Arts Professional Society, founded by esteemed cartoonists Sergio Aragonès and Don Rico, and writer Mark Evanier). She wants to promote, nurture, and network artists and writers in the sequential and non-sequential art aspects of the comic arts. And she does that through a variety of means, including the Asian Invasion, a group she founded and organizes that brings AAPI comic creators together to celebrate their work with fans. They have a SoCal and NorCal edition of their mini con that they organize. Check the link for more details on their late summer/early fall events. We met Christie at WonderCon and we really admired her willingness to delve into more edgy, darker themes in her work Demon Bitch! In this episode, we talk about her career, what motivates her, Asian Invasion, CAPS, and more! Her work is available on GlobalComix.com and she hosts a weekly Wednesday ‘Lunch Hour' Drawstream at noon PST on her socials (like her Instagram and YouTube channel) and on the Indie Comics Network. You can also see more of her work through her Linktree at HoraToraStudios. If you like what we do, please share, follow, and like us in your podcast directory of choice or on Instagram @AAHistory101.

Welcome to Episode 19 of Products of the Mind. On this episode, I speak with comic book writer, shop owner, and entrepreneurial innovator Mike Wellman. Today’s talk is with Mike Wellman: a comic book artist, shop owner, and a man who is always looking to expand his business by helping others. Mike talks about growing up in North Carolina and being perceived as the bad kid for having comic books. And what do comic book bad boys from North Carolina do? Move to L.A. of course! Hear about Mike’s many jobs from street marketing to doing coverage of scripts. Not a fan of American History X? Apparently Mike wasn’t either… he gave the original script a big thumbs down! Learn about how Mike’s aspirations to become a screenwriter halted in a failed job interview with Tim Daly, and how that fall-through led him to his job at Geoffrey’s Comics. It’s all downhill after that, Mike now owns the Comic Bug in L.A. Tune in to learn how his shop sets themselves apart from other comic book vendors, and why The Comic Bug is a great place for aspiring new artists and entrepreneurs. Other Topics: Tribulations of publishing comics; how small opportunities can open big doors; and supporting Bernie Sanders.
