    Episode 4 - Garry Brown "Falling in Love on the Path to Being a Comic Artist"

    Garry Brown (Falling in Love on the Path to Hell, The Massive, Baby Teeth) joins Joe and Adam this week to talk about the dedication and work ethic required to become (and stay) a working comic book artist, as well as moving to a new country to pursue his dream. Even though we were close with Garry all 3 years, we still didn't realize the pressure he was under during his time at the Kubert School. It's an eye-opening look into the realities of being a full time illustrator.  Reminder to email us at callthemkubies@gmail.com, give us a call at 973-348-5288, and check out our Instagram at @callthemkubies.
