Hi, everybody. Writer David Avallone returns to the show to talk about the upcoming release of the first volume of Drawing Blood, his collaboration with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles co-creator Kevin Eastman. The trade paperback collecting the first four issues and bonus comic content comes out October 16, 2024. Issue 7 from Image Comics comes out in a few weeks so please put this fantastic series on your pull lists at your local comic shop. We also talk to David about his Elvira books from Dynamite Comics, his episodes of Batwheels on Netflix and Max, and his contributions to a Grateful Dead inspired anthology and an upcoming Sherlock Holmes anthology. We always learn something when David is on the show, so be prepared to be inspired.

He is @DAvallone on social media (primarily Bluesky Social).
