We loved Andrea's art on Cobra Commander and we were thrilled that he was able to join us from his home in Sicily to talk to us about it! Given how good the book is, we were amazed to discover just how new Andrea is to comics - and we talk a bout his route to working on the book.
The images shared on screen include some of Andreas's work, including never seen before grety-tone art and his process maps for the Nemesis vs Dreadnoks battle.
Mark's mic is playing up a bit in this episode - sorry!

With the release of G.I. Joe ARAH # 306 on 15 May 2024, Mark and Tim talk to new penciller, Paul Pelletier. We talk about his experience of GI Joe, a more general sweep of his career in comics and how it feels to be working on GI Joe, and how different it is to other work.

The audio only podcast has the audio more neatly edited. We don't share so much on the screen on this episode so that would be my recommendation for this episode.

We talk broadly about ARAH 306 and show on screen a page 1 of the book with Zartan (which has been shared previously in Skybounds preview promotions), but we don't really get into very spoilery territory.
Mark's mic is playing up a bit this episode (it fades in and out a bit) - apologies!
Next episode Mark & Tim will do a review of the issue and get into the full spoiler filled detail.
