It’s time to wrap up 2023 in Episode 621 with a great conversation with an excellent up-and-coming comics creator, Olivia Cuartero-Briggs!
Olivia is an award-winning dramatic writer, fitness junky, and girl mom, born and raised in New York City. She’s also the author of Mary Shelley Monster Hunter and Silver City with Aftershock Comics as well as the upcoming Fate: The Winx Saga graphic novel series from Maverick. Jill and the Killers is her groundbreaking new series debuting with Oni Press in January, and it’s described this way: “Returning to school after the unsolved disappearance of her mother, teenager Jill Estrada can’t wait for things to return to normal . . . even as her friends become compulsively obsessed with Box Killers, a true-crime subscription game where each month’s ‘unsolved case’ is custom-tailored to the life of its player. There’s only one catch: Jill’s game seems to be all too real . . . and when her clues begin to connect to a series of disappearances in her town, Jill and her friends must uncover the truth behind these mysterious crimes before one of their own becomes the next victim.” We talk about how this book came to be, who the characters are, and what we can expect from Olivia in the coming months! It’s a fun discussion, just a perfect way to wrap up 2023! Be sure to let your local comics shop know you want this high-octane title today!
