TC, Mikey, Holly and Les are talking comics and other stories that ended too soon. We're bringing back dinosaurs, super-satire and medieval butt-kicking, just for starters. Here's the link to the Hexer Dusk Kickstarter campaign (Jan Duursema & John Ostrander). Quick correction: Martial Law was created by Kevin O'Neill and Pat Mills. And as always, our picks of the week.
TC, Mikey, Holly and Les talk about promoting indie comics! What are we doing to get the word out for the little guys? What else can we do to help? Who else is doing similar stuff to help? Tangents include defining (or not) what an indie comic is and who makes them. Mentioned links for Alternative Free Comics Day, Buy Indie Comics Day, and Make Mine Indie. And as always, our picks of the week.
TC, Mikey, Holly and Les are playing Hollywood again - this time we're remaking our favorite bad movies! Comics movies, sci-fi movies, classics - even an Elvis movie! No holds barred (and no time limits). And as always, our picks of the week.
TC, Mikey and Les are talking Free Comic Book Day! We got the scoop on our favorite pseudo-holiday, including history, pro tips and some of what happens on the inside. Links include the FCBD website, the Comic Book Plus page and Lyn Kelly's book. And as always, our picks of the week.
TC, Mikey and Les are talking origins! We go into how they're used, how often they're used, and how well they're used. We also talk about a few favorite origins. Also, the link to the 5th Dimension Comics Kickstarter campaign. And as always, our picks of the week.
TC, Mikey and Les are talking comics crossovers! We put on our “creator” hats and come up with some ideas for crossover stories. Any Hollywood execs listening, we at least want a cut. And as always, our picks of the week.
TC, Mikey, Holly and Les discuss the evolution of the thought balloon, and of storytelling in comics over the last 40 years or so. Points of coincidental focus include Wonder Woman and Batman (though not in the context of “that movie”) and Gail Simone (who’s welcome to come on the show at any time). And as always, our picks of the week.
TC, Mikey and Les talk about exclusive contracts for comic book creators. We may not work in HR, but we’re not letting that slow us down. We also mention our Steve Niles interview from 2012, linked here. And as always, our picks of the week.
TC, Mikey, Holly and Les put on their Hollywood producer caps and go nuts. Movies and TV will never be the same. And as always, our picks of the week.
