  1. Geof Darrow | The Shaolin Cowboy: Beginning of the End Results--21 Years of Blood, Sweat, and Chainsaws HC

    Geof Darrow | The Shaolin Cowboy: Beginning of the End Results--21 Years of Blood, Sweat, and Chainsaws HC

    We sit down with legendary artist Geof Darrow to discuss the new Dark Horse collection, The Shaolin Cowboy: Beginning of the End Results--21 Years of Blood, Sweat, and Chainsaws HC, celebrating over two decades of his hyper-detailed, Eisner Award-winning series about an unnamed former Shaolin monk wandering with his talking mule. Geof shares how the series was inspired by Kung Fu, Kurosawa's Yojimbo, and Zatoichi, his collaboration with Frank Miller who advised against putting "cowboy" in the title (which he ignored), his Matrix storyboard work with the Wachowskis who wrote the opening dialogue for the original Burlyman run, and his approach to creating densely detailed pages filled with absurd violence like battling a giant shark using two chainsaws tied to a stick. We get into his "I thought it would be funny" creative philosophy and celebrate what 21 years of this gonzo series means in one definitive collection.

    Chris Ryall 3 | Daredevil: Born Again (Marvel Age of Comics)

    We wrap up our miniseries on Bloomsbury’s Marvel Age of Comics books with a deep dive into returning guest Chris Ryall’s take on Daredevil: Born Again. Chris walks us through what pulled him toward revisiting the Miller–Mazzucchelli classic and why the arc’s themes of identity, faith, and total breakdown still hit so hard. He sheds light on the creative partnership behind the original story, digs into the roles of Kingpin and Karen Page, and shares some behind-the-scenes insights and visual details fans may have overlooked.  You can listen to Chris's first interview here: buzzsprout.com/1817176/episodes/15757310.

    Stuart Moore Returns | Doctor Strange: A Decade of Dark Magic (Marvel Age of Comics)

    We welcome back Stuart Moore to discuss his new Marvel Age of Comics book, Doctor Strange: A Decade of Dark Magic. Stuart explores Doctor Strange's first ten years from his 1963 debut through the early '70s, examining how the Steve Ditko/Stan Lee stories' trippy, philosophical approach influenced 1960s counterculture, and how that counterculture in turn shaped the minds of later creators like Steve Englehart and Frank Brunner. We dive into his research on the East Village location of the Sanctum Sanctorum, the succession of writers and artists including Roy Thomas, Gene Colan, Gardner F. Fox, and Marie Severin who expanded on Ditko's mind-bending concepts, and Strange's evolving roles as mystic, super hero, and leader of the Defenders.  Take a listen to Stuart's first DBB appearance: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1817176/episodes/15313491.

    Paul Cornell | The Mighty Avengers vs. the 1970s (Marvel Age of Comics)

    Kicking off our Marvel Age of Comics miniseries, we talk with writer and historian Paul Cornell, about his career and new book, Marvel Age of Comics: The Mighty Avengers vs. the 1970s, which explores how Marvel’s flagship heroes evolved against a decade defined by social upheaval, cultural reinvention, and boundary-pushing storytelling. Cornell first talks about his Doctor Who writing and work in comic books before turning to the new book, which discusses the creative forces that shaped the era, the team dynamics that reflected changing American attitudes, and how the Avengers of the ’70s both embraced and bucked the trends of the time.  You can follow Paul on his website, paulcornell.com, or on Instagram @paulcornell2096.
