Ian speaks with journalist Shea Hennum about their article on #comicsbrokeme, in which workers in the comics industry shared their stories of tight deadlines, unreasonable workloads, and low pay following the death of cartoonist Ian McGinty. For the article, which appeared at solrad.co, they applied an analysis that synthesized communist and anarchist traditions in order to identify a multitude of sites of political struggle, challenge systems of domination and violence, and chart possible ways forward, similar to analysis applied in the movement to abolish the Prison Industrial Complex. They discuss past efforts to organize within the comic book industry as well as current organization efforts, such as the formation of the United Workers of Seven Seas, a union of workers at Seven Seas Entertainment, Comic Book Workers United, a union of workers at Image Comics, and Cartoonist Cooperative, a cohort of cartoonists committed to mutual promotion, skill and info sharing, and efforts to make industry wages and practices more transparent. They also discuss possible ways for comic book readers to offer support.

A estas alturas no quedará nadie por enterarse del hashtag #comicsbrokeme que ha dado la vuelta a las redes sociales en las últimas semanas. Aludiendo a aquella mítica frase que se atribuye a Jack Kirby «Chico, los comics te romperán el corazón» y a raíz de la muerte del joven dibujante Ian McGinty, un montón de profesionales del sector han usado este hashtag como bandera para denunciar la precariedad del mundillo. Sobre este tema y lo que vaya surgiendo enfocaremos la primera mitad a modo de debate y, a la vuelta de la música y como de costumbre, recomendaremos unas cuantas lecturas. Sabed, oh-yentes, que entre los años del hundimiento de Atlantis y sus brillantes ciudades, tragadas por los océanos, y los años del nacimiento de los hijos de Aryas, hubo una edad no soñada donde podía escucharse el podcast 298 de ELHDLT.

#ComicsBrokeMe but organizing is the answer! The comics industry harms the artists, writers and editors who make the art we love. Building collective power is the strategy powerful enough to win. The Cartoonist Cooperative is a new vehicle for doing just that! I'm joined by one of this new organization's founding members, Joan Zahra Dark, to talk about the organization's goals and how readers can support it. We also talk about some cool very queer comics with gay robots and what not.

CAPÍTULO #344… Esta semana reclutamos a nuestros agentes especiales para hablar de Los Perdedores, obra de Andy Diggle y Jock del extinto sello Vértigo, sobre un grupo de mercenarios que se ven metidos en una emboscada. Además también pasaremos por su adaptación cinematográfica, una propuesta muy macarra con un reparto plagado de estrellas de Hollywood y que pasó bastante desapercibida. También repasaremos las últimas noticias de Actualidad, así como los próximos avances editoriales. Y por supuesto no nos faltarán las reseñas de los mejores lanzamientos como el nuevo coleccionable de Marvel, la nueva Invasión Secreta, El Carnicero de los Dioses y mucho más.

On this week's episode of the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER!, we have not one but two Kickstarters to share with you. First up is a new Kickstarter from friend-of-the-show Justin Zimmerman (The 27 Run: Crush), who has an ongoing project for his new documentary film Soldier. The movie is about a modern-day super-hero: Daniel is a firefighter, a former sniper, an MMA champion, a father of five, and most importantly a PTSD survivor. His story is one that needs to be heard, and supporting this Kickstarter will help that be done. Even though the project is funded, please help the Kickstarter reach the stretch goals so that the film can include additional scenes. Next is a Kickstarter from new friend-of-the-show Matt Blairstone, who is prepping his new horror anthology Green Inferno. Inspired by the wildfires that swept the west coast last year, Green Inferno is a collection of horror stories with ecological roots. Matt has brought in an incredible roster of creators, such as Ian McGinty, Jordon Kroeger, Alex Woodroe, Kristofor Harris, Lorna Keach, Diane Barker, Harrison Webb, Lena Ng, and more. This project has one week left to reach its goal, so let's all step up and help this reach. Now with any other podcast, that would be enough for a full show. Not us. We have a lot of discussions still to do, including Justice League, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, some retail comic book therapy, and our weekly Pick 3 selections, sponsored by Clint's Comics. We would love to hear your comments on the show. Let us know what you’ve been reading or watching this week. Contact us on our website, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or email. We want to hear from you! As always, we are the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER! and we hope you enjoy the show. The Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER! is proudly sponsored by Clint’s Comics.

As we end Year Two for both MakingComics.com and the Gutter Talk podcast, we're pretty darn excited and grateful for how far we've come and where we're heading. We have a lot of big plans for the future but before we get too ahead of ourselves, let's deal with where we currently are. In today's Gutter Talk episode, Adam sits down with artist and creator, Ian McGinty, to discuss everything from creating music in his teens to creating comics in his twenties and beyond, and also how the two can sometimes require the same process. It's also pretty cool and inspiring to see and hear how far Ian has come since his high school days when he began to take comics seriously. While he explains how this came at the expense of something else, the moral is that sometimes the sacrifice is worth the reward. Ian's recent bouts of success are proof of that.
