Fireside Chat with Tim Seeley
The Comic Source
As part of 12 Days of The Comic Source, this Fireside Chat features Jace of The Comic Source welcoming back comic creator Tim Seeley for a detailed holiday conversation that moves through the many phases of his career and the projects currently defining it. Seeley reflects on how teaching has shifted his relationship to freelance work, allowing greater selectivity while still embracing major opportunities, before revisiting Revival—from its small-town crime-horror roots and philosophical themes to the reception of its Syfy television adaptation and the realities of modern TV development. The discussion then turns to Masters of the Universe: The Sword of Flaws, exploring Seeley’s lifelong connection to the property, his focus on power, responsibility, and fan continuity, and collaborations with artists Freddie Williams II and Riley Brown. From there, Seeley breaks down the slasher-inspired premise of Undeadpool and how the Age of Revelation setting reshapes Deadpool’s stakes, followed by a candid look at Local Man as a deeply personal, nostalgia-driven creator-owned project born out of pandemic-era reflection. The conversation also covers the enduring legacy of Hack/Slash and plans for its return, the freedom and excess of Vigilante under the James Gunn–inspired incarnation, the unexpected cultural relevance of G.I. Joe: Cold Slither, and the creative launch of new work like No Place, offering insight into collaboration, fandom, generational storytelling, and the motivations that continue to drive Seeley’s work, before closing with Seeley talking about his love of Christmas including spending time sledding, revisiting his favorite Christmas movie, and making time for seasonal outings like the Christkindlmarket, all of which help mark the holidays as a meaningful reset before the new year.
