1.13 Aliens

31 minutes

This week is a special episode in celebration of Mythos & Ink's upcoming graphic novels! The hosts are chatting about aliens with Lyndon Radchenka and Steven Kaul, creators of the graphic novel Infinite Universe. How do you create alien races with lived experiences so it feels like the story's universe is inhabited by other lifeforms? How do you create that necessary feeling of unfamiliarity? What makes a believable alien?

Notes

Emma's example: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

Steven's example: Paul

Kyle's example: Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card

Lyndon's example: Superman
