In this special bonus episode of Let's Talk Comics, we're bringing you a conversation that's as fascinating as it is unexpected! Jason Aaron (Bug Wars, Thor, Scalped) is back on the show but this time with entomologist Dr. Adrian Smith, an expert in insect behavior, to dive deep into the real-world inspirations behind Bug Wars. The two of them explore the brutal, cooperative, and downright alien nature of insects, from deadly beetle battles to ant warfare, and how those elements shape the world of the comic. Plus, we learn about the craziest bugs that should absolutely make it into the series, including a real-life predator with a sticky, projectile mouth! Whether you're a comic fan, a bug enthusiast, or just love a great behind-the-scenes story, this episode is a must-listen.
