In the first of four episodes created at this year's HeroesCon in Charlotte, NC, Andy and Derek talk with a variety of artists, writers, and editors. Well...Derek talked with everyone. By his own admission, Andy was a little lazy, sitting back and letting Derek do all of the work with the microphone. Regardless, the result is a series of brief interviews with diverse creators, some who have been on the podcast before (such as Andy Hirsch and Ryan Browne) and others whose work the guys have just discovered. On this episode you will hear conversations with
Amanda Rachels about her work, Flesh of White
Karla Pacheco on her book, Inspector Pancakes, and the art of naked titty pirate comics
Andy Hirsch discussing Baker Street Peculiars and his upcoming book, Varmints
Tom Neely and Keenan Marshall Keller about the future of their series, The Humans
Magdelene Vasaggio on her new Black Mask series, Kim & Kim
Tom Heinjes and Craig Yoe (who were tabling next to one another) about their recent Eisner Award nominations
Ryan Browne on the wrap-up of God Hates Astronauts and his revamping of Blast Furnace: Recreational Thief!
Andy Runton as he discusses the history of his all-age comic, Owly
Enrica Jang about her love of adapting Edgar Allan Poe
Oliver Ono on the Columbia College of Art and Design's comics anthology, Spitball
Jeremy Haun and Jason Hurley about the reception of their Image series, The Beauty.
Stay tuned over the next week for other episodes generated at the 2016 HeroesCon!
