    Ep: 75 Rick Burchett — The Artist Who Made Batman Move

    Send us Fan Mail If you grew up reading The Batman Adventures, Batman: Gotham Adventures, or Superman Adventures, Rick Burchett’s work shaped how you see those characters.  His pages don’t just look good — they move, they breathe, they act. In this episode, we sit down with Rick to talk about how a commercial art background at a St. Louis ad agency quietly became one of the best training grounds for comics storytelling, why the animated Batman books weren’t just tie-ins but a genuine artistic statement, and what it actually takes to sustain a career in comics across decades without losing your voice. Rick breaks down what he’s really chasing when he builds a page, how he shifted gears between Batman’s tension and Superman’s optimism without losing himself, and why clarity and restraint — not flash — are the rarest skills in the medium. This one’s for the fans who wore out those pages. And for anyone who ever wondered what makes a comic actually work. Theme music composed by Ron Wasserman  Audio composed and edited by  Lauren M.

    Ep: 74 Dancing Between the Raindrops with Nelson Aspen

    Send us Fan Mail He’s covered the Oscars, the Golden Globes, and decades of Hollywood from the red carpet out. Now Nelson Aspen is turning the lens on himself. Nelson joins Back to Pop to talk about Dancing Between the Raindrops: Happily Ever After? — the final chapter in his trilogy blending romance, identity, and the unfiltered realities behind the spotlight.  It’s a book that feels lived-in, because it is. We dig into reinvention in middle age, the tension between wanting intimacy and settling for availability, what it means to start over in New York City, and whether “happily ever after” is something we’re taught — or something we have to redefine on our own terms. This one goes deep. And it earns it. Dancing Between the Raindrops: Happily Ever After?  The Magnificent Mr. &Mrs. Maple are available now.

    9 ABR

    EP: 73  “Bob Budiansky on Building the Original Transformers Mythology”

    Send us Fan Mail He named 200 characters like Megatron, Starscream, Grimlock, Bumblebee, Prowl, and more . He wrote the character bibles that turned a line of Japanese toys into one of the most beloved franchises in pop culture history — and most people have never heard his name. Bob Budiansky spent 20 years at Marvel Comics as an editor, writer, and penciller. He drew Ghost Rider covers for five years, co-plotted the conclusion of the original Johnny Blaze run, and wrote The Transformers from issue #5 through #55 — crafting the personalities, the mythology, and the names behind roughly 250 characters over six years. Then he walked away from licensed properties and built something entirely his own: Sleepwalker, a wildly original Marvel series about an otherworldly guardian who battles nightmares bleeding into the real world — which he wrote for all 33 issues. In this conversation, Bob takes us behind the curtain on all of it: how the Transformers assignment landed on his desk over Thanksgiving with a week’s deadline, what it felt like to realize he was building the foundation of a global franchise, and why he didn’t fully grasp what he’d created until he googled his own name in the 90s. This one’s for every kid who ever picked up a Transformer and wondered where it came from. Back to Pop drops every Thursday. Subscribe wherever you listen.

    EP: 72 Jeremy Robinson: Blood, Butterflies, and Building an Empire

    Send us Fan Mail Jeremy Robinson has written nearly 100 novels. He’s a #1 Audible and New York Times bestselling author published in 14 languages. His kaiju series Project Nemesis is in development at Sony Pictures Television with John Wick director Chad Stahelski. And now he’s back where he started — in comics. But he’s not adapting his novels.  He’s creating something new. Nectar, the debut title from Robinson’s own Breakneck Comics imprint at Vault Comics, is a 19th-century gothic folk horror story set in 1837 on Misery Island — a cold, isolated stretch of land off the coast of Salem, Massachusetts. Its monster: blood-drinking butterflies carrying the Dancing Plague. The goal was to build something that could stand alongside Dracula and Frankenstein. From the early reviews, they may have pulled it off. In this episode, Jeremy Robinson traces the full arc — from Beverly, Massachusetts kid raised on science fiction and seacoast exploration, to comic book illustrator, to screenwriter, to genre fiction empire builder. We talk about the leap from drawing panels to filling them with story, the architecture of a shared universe, what it means to run your own imprint, and how an idea that arrived in minutes with his wife Hilaree became the horror comic readers are already hunting on the secondary market. This is the origin story. And the monster story. And the business story. Let’s go.

    Ep: 71 Comics, Games, and the End of Everything: William Harms

    Send us Fan Mail William Harms has spent thirty years building worlds — and the dead ones are his best work yet. From small press comics in the early ‘90s to writing Captain America and Wolverine for Marvel, to crafting the entire story of inFAMOUS for PlayStation 3 (IGN’s Best Story of the Year, 2009), to serving as Narrative Director on Mafia III — a BAFTA-nominated game that ended up in a Victoria and Albert Museum exhibit — William Harms has done it all.  And now he’s back in creator-owned comics with White Sky, his haunting new post-apocalyptic series from Image Comics about a father and daughter fleeing across a world completely ruled by ghosts. Issue one sold out at the distributor level on release day. The second printing has already topped 30,000 orders . In this episode, we go deep on the personal thread running through thirty years of horror, games, and comics — how William wrote the moral complexity of Mafia III, what makes ghost stories different from every other kind of horror, and why White Sky isn’t just a story about the end of the world. It’s a story about what you hold onto when everything is gone. White Sky #1 and #2 are available now from Image Comics. Theme music composed by Ron Wasserman  Audio composed and edited by  Lauren M.

    Ep: 70 Marc Singer: Before the Loincloth, Beyond the Legend

    Send us Fan Mail Before streaming. Before shared universes. Before fandom went mainstream — there were heroes who meant it. This week on Back to Pop, we give Marc Singer’s career the full treatment it deserves. He was a classically trained stage actor before any of this happened on a screen — playing Petruchio in A.C.T.’s landmark 1976 Taming of the Shrew for PBS, Christian in Cyrano de Bergerac opposite Peter Donat and Marsha Mason. His film debut was opposite Burt Lancaster in Go Tell the Spartans, one of the sharpest Vietnam War films ever made. His 1982 alone contained two completely different performances: the stoic, compassionate Dar in The Beastmaster and the funny, chaotic Tom Sullivan in If You Could See What I Hear. Then came V — not just science fiction spectacle, but a documented Nazi allegory adapted from Sinclair Lewis, with Singer’s Mike Donovan as the TV news cameraman who sneaks aboard an alien mothership, films the truth, and refuses to look away. We trace the full arc: the Singer family musical dynasty that explains everything, the cable TV revolution that turned The Beastmaster into a generational touchstone, the voice of Man-Bat in what many consider the greatest animated series ever made, and Singer’s late-career villain turn in Arrow — a general who unleashes a bioweapon on Hong Kong and calls it patriotism. Hero. Monster. Villain. Shakespearean. The man brought his full instrument to every room — and because he did, these stories became something people carry for decades. Start with The Beastmaster. Chase it with the original V. Then find the 1976 Taming of the Shrew on YouTube — and you’ll understand everything. Theme music composed by Ron Wasserman  Audio composed and edited by  Lauren M.

    Ep: 69 Into the Sweetest Darkness: Doug Wagner

    Send us Fan Mail Today, on Back To Pop we dive into the pages of comics, with acclaimed writer Doug Wagner    Doug Wagner writes serial killers in love, cannibal furries, fashion designers with a taste for human flesh, and Viking curses — and somehow, every single one lands with genuine heart. This week, Marc sits down with the creator of Plastic, Vinyl, Plush, I Was a Fashion School Serial Killer, and the upcoming Narco to find out how he makes the darkest material feel weirdly, disarmingly human. They dig into Wagner’s long road in — seven years, 200+ rejection letters, a brief window at Malibu Comics that collapsed just two months after he was hired, and nine more years clawing back from that. They talk about the anthology crime roots that built his storytelling instincts, his creative partnership with artist Daniel Hillyard, and the tonal tightrope he walks in every book: horror, comedy, and sincerity, all at once. Plus: the Hitchcock influences behind Narco, why his protagonists always feel like outsiders reaching for something just out of grasp, and what that kid who learned to read through comics would think of what he’s built. Start with Plastic. Then spiral in beautifully from there.

    EP: 68 Highburn Studios: The Business, the Books, and the Grind of Indie Comics

    Send us Fan Mail Michael Watkins (CEO/Editor-in-Chief, Highburn Studios) is back — and this time he brought the whole crew. Joining him are Lyle Pollard, creator of the slice-of-life series Tribulations, and Mike “Mez” Phillips, freelance artist and creator behind No More and the upcoming Hemlock. Over the course of an hour, we get into what Highburn actually looks like from the inside in 2026, the challenges of running a creator-owned studio, and what it means to be both a working artist and a publisher at the same time. We break down each of their books — the new second-generation arc in Guardians, what makes Tribulations feel so specific and human, and how Mez is juggling two creator-owned projects alongside freelance work and teaching art.  We also get into the messy, honest stuff: page 87 burnout, pricing and print costs, what marketing actually works (versus what sounds good on a panel), and what to do if you just finished book one and have no idea what comes next. This one’s for the readers, the makers, and everyone somewhere in between. 🔗 Find Highburn Studios and all their titles in the link below. https://www.highburn.com/  https://www.instagram.com/mike_mez_phillips?igsh=bGRmdnlzZWVmYmpi https://www.instagram.com/michaelwatkins_highburn?igsh=cHBrbDJnYXIxa3Qw Theme music composed by Ron Wasserman  Audio composed and edited by  Lauren M.
