Writer Justin Coke is interviewed this week in Episode #749 to talk about his first book SWAT: Eldritch Blue Issue #1! Justin's very first comic is crowdfunding on Kickstarter now, and it's described this way: "A squad of broken-down outcasts, weirdos, and wizards battle to enforce the Grand Bargain—the agreement in which the monsters of the world have agreed to hunting quotas in exchange for safety from wizards like Larry Slaughter, who are always ready to hand out the punishment for breaking the Grand Bargain—summary execution." We discuss how SWAT: Eldritch Blue came to be, who the characters are in this series, and what we can expect from Justin in the months ahead! This Kickstarter will conclude on Sunday, June 21, at 8:55 p.m., so be sure to back it at the link above as soon as you finish listening to this fun and enlightening conversation!

Kenny Porter is a very busy comics creator! This week in Episode 748, we talk with him, who has had stories published by DC Comics, Image Comics, SEGA, and Top Cow, as well as Fearless from Scholastic and Barnstormers! from Insight Comics. If you visit your local comics shop, you are very likely to find at least two of his books there—The Schlub collected as a trade paperback from Image, and Superman: Father of Tomorrow from DC. Here's the description of that latter book: "In a corner of far-flung space, a world explodes. A lone rocket escapes the destruction and races through space, ultimately landing on a small farm in small-town Kansas. A kindly couple steps with trepidation toward the alien craft as the door opens. Out steps a man named Jor-El, the sole survivor of the planet Krypton! As Jor-El fits in to his new home, he realizes that he can help the world, not just with his newfound powers, but with his intellect as well. Witness how a Man of Steel and Science saves the world!" We talk about both books with Kenny as well as Operation: Iron Coffin, which is coming soon from IDW. You can check out his website at this link. If you haven't already been buying comics with his name on them, be sure to check them out after you listen to our fun conversation!

Even though I had 2 weeks worth of books to read, one stopped me cold and killed my interest in reading comics ... forever? Hopefully not.Some talk about news. Questions answered. Recent comics talked about.

It's a great week here at the podcast, so it's time for a great conversation! In Episode 747, it's the return of David Pepose, the writer of Savage Avengers, Space Ghost, Speed Racer, and The O.Z., wonderful comics you should definitely support! During our discussion, we talk about his latest Kickstarter, and it's for The O.Z. #1-3, which you can sign up for at this link! Here's the book's description: "Haunted by her past, a disillusioned Iraq war veteran must survive the war-torn land of Oz." Of course, the O.Z. stands for the "occupied zone," which is something we talk about. David and I discuss his return to Kickstarter after some time away. We also delve into his run on Space Ghost, which I truly enjoy, then touch on Speed Racer and his other books! David is one of those great rising comics creators you should keep up with, so don't miss this fun conversation!

With both Brad and Dave nominated for awards this year, the guys spiral into a surprisingly deep conversation about awards, marketing, ego, and whether creators should plaster “award nominee” stickers all over their books. Later, they tackle a listener question about using 3D models, digital sets, and reference material in comics production — leading to a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at how both creators actually build comics pages in tools like Clip Studio Paint and Photoshop. Along the way, they discuss why imperfections matter in cartooning, how typography affects visual storytelling, and why “cheating” is often just another word for “working smarter.” Today's Show Should you put an award nomination on a book cover?

Aaron and Bob are holding down the fort while Joey earns his first Father of the Year Award, John transforms into a human car, and Steve is busy talking to Elijah Wood! What will Aaron and Bob discuss? You'll need to listen to find out! I bet it's comics! The discussion dolls into the complexities of comic book sales tracking, the impact of speculation on the market and a passionate discussion on the enduring importance of engaging storytelling and fostering new generations of readers. We also discussed our memorial Day weekend movie viewing recommendations, particularly how Bob chose patriotism while Aaron chose violence.

Ven Adams, the guitarist, creative director, and co-founder of the musical band Fangbanger, is the guest this week in Episode #740! She's bringing an anthology, 120-page comic version of their album Superposition to fans around the world via her zoop.gg crowdfunding project. Ven and the rest of the band blend music and visual storytelling into a singular, immersive aesthetic. The group's work has always drawn on comic and manga influences, shaping their visuals, stage design, and narrative-driven projects. Here's how the book is described: "Superposition was the band's first and only album, and this anthology gives its themes a second life through visual storytelling. Rather than focusing only on loss, the project is about growth, memory, and the strange, beautiful process of becoming someone new after everything changes. Supporting this campaign helps turn the music into something tangible and lasting—a book that carries those emotions forward." We talk about the band, including how it was formed, how the album was brought together, and what Ven is looking forward to doing in the months and years ahead. You can support Ven and this book by going to this link, and this crowdfunder will conclude on or around Thursday, April 30.

In this episode, Brad and Dave tackle a question every cartoonist eventually asks: Where should I invest my time and energy? From gallery shows to professional organizations to keeping up with “the kids,” this conversation is packed with practical, experience-tested advice. But first things first! Here's Brad's 2021 blog post about the science behind why vampires don't cast a reflection in a mirror. Are Art Galleries Worth It? A listener asks whether exhibiting in a gallery helps grow a comics career. Key takeaways: • Gallery exposure rarely converts into comic readers • If it's not clickable, it's not effective promotion • Sales are often split (sometimes 50/50), cutting into profits • You can usually sell original art more effectively on your own platform • The biggest benefit? Personal satisfaction and a nice ego boost Should Beginners Join Professional Organizations? Brad and Dave revisit a classic question: Are groups like the National Cartoonists Society (NCS) worth it? • 10–15 years ago: Limited practical value• Today: Much more actionable, community-driven, and educational What You Actually Get • Real-world, practical learning (panels, talks, workshops) • Networking with professionals who actually understand comics • Access to events, meetups, and tabling opportunities • Career insight you won't get from general audiences Pro tip: For younger creators, discounted memberships make this a much easier entry point. ComicLab at the Reubens Brad and Dave will be presenting at this year's Reuben Awards Weekend, August 6-8 in Columbus, Ohio. Their session: “Actionable Advice in a Time of Change” • Practical, career-focused insights • Guest cartoonists joining a live panel format • A mix of strategy, storytelling, and real-world experience They'll also be around all weekend — panels, conversations, and (possibly questionable) lunch recommendations.
