(A full transcript of this episode will be available soon on FollowFridayPodcast.com. Please check back!) https://poorlydrawnlines.com/ (Poorly Drawn Lines) creator Reza Farazmand thought he knew what to expect when adapting his popular webcomic as an animated TV show. After all, he had seen a https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ytZ5DByr4w (documentary) about how South Park gets made. "That gave me the sense that making an animated show would be this wild process with late nights and a bunch of fast food," he says. "But it was really more of a slow, gradual process with a lot of emailing and phone calls ... It was a lot slower than I thought, but it was also an extremely gratifying and fun process." You can watch what came of that process, the Poorly Drawn Lines TV show, on https://www.hulu.com/series/poorly-drawn-lines-a442804a-4dab-413f-9ea5-c2129d800136 (FX on Hulu).

Reza Farazmand draws comics and writes things at Poorly Drawn Lines (PDL). PDL's Wikipedia page is ridiculous, mostly because it's accurate, so I'm going to post the whole thing here. "Poorly Drawn Lines features mostly standalone comic strips that range from just one frame to many, most of which are satirical or absurdist in tone. The topic of each strip varies, with recurring themes including space travel, supernatural occurrences, science fiction, friendship, and existentialism. Most strips are conclusive and able to be read without any previous knowledge of storyline; however, the comic also contains some ongoing story arcs, along with recurring characters such as Ernesto, a green bear who lives in outer space." Reza sat down to chat with us about growing his comic from a hobby to full time work, the marketing that goes into each strip, Plagiarism in the online world, political cartoons, and the graphic novel that's been intimidating him for years.
