Comics Unscripted

We return from our hiatus for an episode on our one-year anniversary with returning guest Toben Racicot! We talk about his new book Pilgrim's Dirge, on Kickstarter now, as well as his writing process and collaborating with other creators!

Darren Vogt, Sam Owen, and John Bernardo of the Comics on the Spot podcast join Comics Unscripted to talk about making comics on the spot and what they've learned by starting their own podcast!

Elyse Russell, writer of Sentience coming from Band of Bards, comes on the podcast to talk a lot about writing, reading, and then a few weird things at the end. 

We get a little bit political this episode, talking with comic creator and journalist Erik Thurman. We talk a lot about his career, the crossover between informative journalism and graphic arts, and the burning question: is there hope for the future? (there is)

Adam Rose, writer of Corollary, comes on the podcast to have a nice chat about collecting comics, some writing insights, and his new book Corollary that comes out on April 20! Plus we talk about the genius and weirdness inside James Tynion's The Nice House on the Lake. 

Shaun Noel, writer of City of Walls, talks with me about writing a webcomic, writing an ending, and worldbuilding, all as we discuss Paul Jenkins' and Jae Lee's Inhumans.

In an informal therapy session, Melissa Meszaros of Don't Hide PR comes on the podcast to talk about PR, advice for comic creators, parents' expectations, and her new book Heavy Metal Headbang, out now!

Andrew Clemson, writer of Star Bastard, Bette Noir, and Damsel from DISTRESS, is on the podcast to discuss writing across genres, working with a publisher, and putting together your comics team. 

Pardon the technical difficulties, but Jake and Ray come on the podcast to promote their comic, Astounding Tales #1, out now! We talk about Silver Age comics, their collaborative process, and how it all relates to Alex Ross and Kurt Busiek's Marvels!

Jason Inman (@jawiin), writer of Super Best Friend (now on Kickstarter), Jupiter Jet, and Science! Elements of Dark Energy comes on to talk about writing TV and comics, building a creative team for comics, and putting those comics on Kickstarter.
