There’s something special when comics characters who don’t interact regularly get the chance to work together! That’s particularly true when at least one of them is popular today!

This week, in Episode 367, I talk with creator Terrance Grace about this engaging book about H.P. Lovecraft, and we discuss the Kickstarter supporting this project, which is now underway.
Peter Tomasi and company are looking at the Dark Knight’s life by sending someone to kill those who know him best—including past allies.
DC recently announced a new campaign to help promote their graphic novels in libraries and schools across the nation called, “Be a Hero, Read a Book.”
In Episode 366, I talk with Steve Rotterdam, the Senior VP for Sales at AfterShock Comics!
Mysteries are always great fun to read, in my opinion. Trying to figure out “whodunit” is a nice mental exercise, so I enjoy it a lot, especially when the solution makes sense.
Of course, add some supernatural elements to it, and mostly all bets are off! The challenge is to make the mystery engaging and still relatable, and that’s what Alterna Comics’ Midnight Mystery does superbly!
Recently some figures came to light that showed Kickstarter hit a new fundraising record in 2018, particularly when it came to comics.
Taking some time off from Batman seems to have let Mr. Snyder really write his very best because, wow, The Batman Who Laughs is something special!
This week, I interview Frank Martin, creator of Modern Testament: Anthology of the Ethereal, and Luke Cooper, creator of Hollow Girl, to talk about Hollow Testament, a new crossover book that brings both creators together as well as their creations!
Turns out 2019 is a big anniversary year for at least two comics companies—Marvel and IDW!
There’s no better way to continue celebrating 2019 than the return of Johnathan Lewis this week in Episode 364, and it’s always great to chat with him about the projects he’s working on!
Young Justice is a great comic as well as a great animated show. I’m partial to the comic, of course, because it often takes us when we fans have not gone before! Thursday and Friday of last week, DC Universe released a two-part story that was full of energy and pathos, with lots of great interaction and a solution that I really enjoyed!
I’m a big believer in variety in my reading. Yes, I buy a lot of superhero comics, but I’m also fascinated by mysteries, crime stories and other kinds of storytelling. I wish I could tell you what I’m going to like, but I often don’t know until I see it. One of my favorite comics companies is AfterShock, and they’ve declared 2019 “The Year of Reading Dangerously.”
Welcome to 2019! In Episode 363, you’ll hear my terrific conversation with David F. Walker, a comics creator who has worked on Shaft, Luke Care, Nighthawk, Cyborg, and Occupy Avengers, just to name a few!
