    Comic Crusaders Podcast – Tom Peyer and Stuart Moore

    Weeeepppaaaaaa…. Hang out with Al Mega as he chats with writer/editor/publisher, Tom Peyer and writer/editor Stuart Moore as they chat about 5 years of Ahoy Comic Mags. Tune in to learn about the journey of this top notch indie comics brand, what to expect in 2024 and more…
    About Ahoy Comic Mags: The funny books publisher is celebrating with a string of fifth anniversary specials, including two-issue runs of fan favorite titles THE WRONG EARTH: WE CAN BE HEROES #1-2 and CAPTAIN GINGER: THE LAST FEEDER #1-2, the crossover extravaganza ACID CHIMP VS. BUSINESS DOG, and the epic 13-part prose serial originated by Grant Morrison PARTIALLY NAKED CAME THE CORPSE! which runs in the backmatter for all fall titles.
    “Crucial note: We refer to this as an anniversary, not a birthday, because we do not wish to be spanked,” said editor-in-chief Tom Peyer. “Don’t make us repeat that!”

Al is what the comics community is all about

Al is such a considerate and enthusiastic host. His fandom of pop culture is real. I love that he’s also looking to lift all those coming up into the industry too. If you don’t get hyped after a show with Al, maybe you weren’t listening. Thanks for empowering creators from new to very experienced, Al. Love you and your show.
