Customer Reviews
Laughin’ and aLearnin’
Thoroughly entertaining and informative. I’m not a comic or online creator but Dave and Brad are a joy to listen to. These gentlemen radiate a love of their work and their community that’s truly infectious.

The 4 C’s of great podcasting
I have recently changed my discipline and focus from comics to watercolor illustrations, but I just can’t quit these two. Dave and Brad have such a way of discussing things that it feels like standing in a group of friends and you get to just listen to the two that have interesting things to say. The warmth and intellect these two exude is next level and something I look forward to listening to every week. If you are t listening to Comic Lab you are doing yourself a disservice.
