    Interview with Justin Coke

    Writer Justin Coke is interviewed this week in Episode #749 to talk about his first book SWAT: Eldritch Blue Issue #1! Justin's very first comic is crowdfunding on Kickstarter now, and it's described this way: "A squad of broken-down outcasts, weirdos, and wizards battle to enforce the Grand Bargain—the agreement in which the monsters of the world have agreed to hunting quotas in exchange for safety from wizards like Larry Slaughter, who are always ready to hand out the punishment for breaking the Grand Bargain—summary execution." We discuss how SWAT: Eldritch Blue came to be, who the characters are in this series, and what we can expect from Justin in the months ahead! This Kickstarter will conclude on Sunday, June 21, at 8:55 p.m., so be sure to back it at the link above as soon as you finish listening to this fun and enlightening conversation!

    Interview with Kenny Porter

    Kenny Porter is a very busy comics creator! This week in Episode 748, we talk with him, who has had stories published by DC Comics, Image Comics, SEGA, and Top Cow, as well as Fearless from Scholastic and Barnstormers! from Insight Comics. If you visit your local comics shop, you are very likely to find at least two of his books there—The Schlub collected as a trade paperback from Image, and Superman: Father of Tomorrow from DC. Here's the description of that latter book: "In a corner of far-flung space, a world explodes. A lone rocket escapes the destruction and races through space, ultimately landing on a small farm in small-town Kansas. A kindly couple steps with trepidation toward the alien craft as the door opens. Out steps a man named Jor-El, the sole survivor of the planet Krypton! As Jor-El fits in to his new home, he realizes that he can help the world, not just with his newfound powers, but with his intellect as well. Witness how a Man of Steel and Science saves the world!" We talk about both books with Kenny as well as Operation: Iron Coffin, which is coming soon from IDW. You can check out his website at this link. If you haven't already been buying comics with his name on them, be sure to check them out after you listen to our fun conversation!
