It's a big week for comic book lovers in Canada as the Toronto Comic Arts Festival kicks off this weekend, running from May 8th through the 15th. Sticking to digital as they had last year, they'll be welcoming some very dynamic creative forces, including today's guest. Jason Lapidus is the talented artist behind Group of 7, a work of historical fiction about real-life Canadian legends who all served overseas at the same time. If it wasn't crazy enough that these historical figures were fighting in World War I at the same time, Jason and Group of 7 writer Chris Sanagan made them their own unit and pit them against conspiracy and monsters and all those wonderful staples of the comic book world. We talk all about Group of 7, Jason's anticipation for his very first TCAF, the value of alternate history in an academic setting, and much more, all before jumping into a wrestling watchalong. In fact, one of the competitors in the match we watch is very familiar with TCAF himself. Artist Andy Belanger, AKA Bob "Animal" Anger defends the Heavymania Championship against the powerhouse Max Lemire at Heavy MTL! Quick shout out to the IWS - we are watching a match filmed by an attending fan, which we did with the blessing of IWS themselves. If you want the full IWS experience (aside from attending live, of course), you'll want to visit the official IWS YouTube channel. Catch some of the earliest matches of talents like Bob Anger, Shayne Hawke, EverRise, Kevin Owens, Brodie Lee, El Generico, and many more. This episode was presented in affiliation with Toronto Comic Arts Festival. Tremendous thanks to TCAF Programming and Partnership Officer Irene Velentzas for putting us in contact with Jason Lapidus.

If you recently watched the mailbag episode of Cartoonist Kayfabe spotlighting Group of 7 off the top or you listened to our episode with Group of 7 artist Jason Lapidus, this is the episode that will complete the Group of 7 trifecta because Chris Sanagan is the writer of Group of 7. Chris lives in Guelph, Ontario but spent many of his younger years as a Bay Street broker in Toronto before persuing a career as a historical achivist. You'll learn from this episode that Chris came up with the idea for Group of 7 after realizing that seven legendary Caadians were all fighting in Europe during WWI at the same time. With those Canadians as chess pieces, a sensibility taken from works like League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and the artistry of one of his best friends in the world, he's able to put together a pretty compelling package for any comic fan who also digs Canadian history.In the coversation, Chris highlights how all those elements came together – in particular, how he and artist Jason Lapidus first met – and their plans for the next Group of 7 storyline after the first six issues, which have recently been collected into graphic novel form as, Group of 7: A Most Secret Tale. It's available for purchase in May 2020.

Jason is a Thornhill, ON. native who always wanted to be a comic artist. He could always draw his classmates under the table, but Thornlea Secondary School was the basis for author Gordon Korman's 1985 novel Don't Care High and the moniker was still true when Lapidus went there.The vibe killed any enthusiasm he had for institutional education and that buzz kill continued in art school where he just couldn't connect painting on wood block and philosphizing about art with the practical skills he wanted to learn in order to make comics.Instead, he leaned into his job at the Royal Ontario Museum teaching comic book classes for kids in informal settings. Ironically, this lapsed art student has made a career out of teaching art in unconventional environments to elementary school and college age students.That seemed like where his art talent would go until a double date he definitely didn't want to be on. That's where he met Chris Sanagan. Their girlfriends (now wives) were already best friends and they were just dragged along for the ride. Thankfully, they had the same interests: comics, Wilco, the Leafs, Batman the Animated Series and more. It was enough to hit it off, so when Sanagan proposed this crazy idea for a comic he had to coincide with the 100th anniversary of Canada's involvement in World War I, he went with it.This is what eventually became known as The Group of 7 – a historical fiction comic centring on the real life convergence of several Canadian historical figures in Europe during WWI, except in this version they're all recruited for an off book secret mission. Think a Canadian League of Extraordinary Gentlemen featuring Conn Smythe, John McCrea, Lester Pearson, Frederick Banting and more.Jason explains how this project has pushed and challenged him in several unexpected ways and he gives a sneak peek of a spin-off comic coming out of the same alternate history called Peregrines.This podcast is sponsored by the good folks at Hairy Tarantula and Strangers, the new album from Summer and Youth.@jasonlapidus@JasonLapidusGroupof7comic.ca@groupof7comicGroup of 7 on FacebookSponsorsHairy TarantulaStrangers, the new album from Summer and Youth
