    The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen with Jean-Marc Lofficier

    Writer Jean-Marc Lofficier (Batman: Nosferatu, Tales of the Shadowmen) joins us to talk about The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Alan Moore’s crossover masterpiece with artist Kevin O’Neill. Jean-Marc is an expert on the pulp and literary references that Moore and O’Neill draw upon for their epic mash-up, so he’s the perfect guest to discuss the series. He also worked behind-the-scenes on the first volume of League, and continued to help out by providing references for all of the French characters who appeared throughout future volumes, so he has a lot of stories to share. If you’re interested in more pulp/literary crossover fiction, do check out what’s on offer from Jean-Marc's Black Coat Press! Theme music by Michael Pflug © Nathan Cabaniss Hosted on Acast.

    The Great Alan Moore Reread with Timothy Callahan

    From 2011-2012, comics journalist Timothy Callahan ran a weekly column on the Tor.com website called “The Great Alan Moore Reread,” in which he wrote about nearly everything that Moore had done up to that point. As you’d expect, Tim’s got a lot to say about Alan Moore, so I was thrilled when he agreed to come on and talk about his year-long experience re-reading Moore’s work. We talk about the insights Tim came away with after spending a year chronicling Moore’s comics, reminisce about the “Golden Age” of comics journalism on the internet in the 2000’s and take a look at the overall impact Alan Moore has had upon popular culture.

    Tom Strong with Dave Baker

    Writer/artist Dave Baker (Mary Tyler MooreHawk, Halloween Boy) joins us to talk about Tom Strong, Alan Moore and Chris Sprouse’s homage to the pulp heroes of old from America’s Best Comics. Dave knows a thing or two about pulp adventurers thanks to his work on Halloween Boy, leading to a lively discussion over a comic that’s gotten a lot of recent attention thanks to James Gunn listing Tom Strong as an influence on Superman. We dissect pulp hero iconography, marvel at artist Chris Sprouse’s work, and ask the question: Is Tom Strong a top-tier Alan Moore comic, or just merely okay?

    Big Numbers with Paul Jenkins

    Writer Paul Jenkins (The Sentry, Inhumans) joins us to talk about Big Numbers, Alan Moore’s unfinished masterpiece with artist Bill Sienkievicz. Paul actually worked on Big Numbers as an editor early on in his career, and he has stories to tell. What happened with Big Numbers that led to it being unfinished? How far along did Alan Moore get before the project was abandoned? And is it true that replacement artist Al Columbia actually destroyed the art for Big Numbers #4? Paul discusses it all in a pretty incredible interview that you will not want to miss. Theme music by Michael Pflug © Nathan Cabaniss Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Swamp Thing with Dan Watters

    Writer Dan Watters (M.A.S.K., Nightwing, Batman: Dark Patterns) joins us to talk Swamp Thing, Moore’s first work for DC Comics, and the title that helped turn him into a comics superstar. We talk “The Anatomy Lesson,” the amazing collaboration with artists Steve Bissette and John Totleben and the overall influence that ultimately led the creation of Vertigo.  Theme music by Michael Pflug © Nathan Cabaniss Hosted on Acast.

    Green Lantern with Van Jensen

    Praise Glycon… The Alan Moore Cast is here! For our debut episode, we’re looking at Moore’s unforgettable Green Lantern tales from the early eighties, and we’re delighted to be joined by a writer who knows a thing or two about the Corps himself: Van Jensen, the former writer of DC titles like Green Lantern Corps and The Flash and the best-selling author of the soon-to-be-a-TV-series Godfall. Join us as we uncover the horrors awaiting the Green Lantern Corps in “Tygers,” ponder how the Green Lanterns patrol the areas of the universe where there’s no light spectrum, and ask the question: why Doesn’t Mogo Socialize? It’s all here in The Alan Moore Cast, the ONLY podcast where your favorite comic book creators and pop culture aficionados break down Alan Moore’s greatest works. New episodes drop weekly on Thursdays! Theme music by Michael Pflug © Nathan Cabaniss Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
