Mad Dog Morgan Kickstarter Spotlight with Adam Lawson


Listen Later

In this episode Jace chats with writer and filmmaker Adam Lawson about his newly launched crowdfunding campaign for Mad Dog Morgan, a horror-wrestling mash-up described as “The Wrestler meets The Shining.” Lawson explains how the story follows a broken former wrestler whose quest for self-destruction turns into a supernatural fight for redemption inside a haunted house that feeds on the lost and hopeless. He discusses the emotional and mythic inspirations behind the book—ranging from Jake “The Snake” Roberts’ real-life struggles to the biblical tale of Samson—and highlights the creative collaboration with artist Maxi Dall'o, colorist Patricio Delpeche, and letterer Dave Lentz, emphasizing their ability to balance emotion, action, and atmosphere. Jace and Adam also explore the craft of comic storytelling, the importance of lettering and color in setting mood, and the rewards of direct-to-reader crowdfunding. The episode closes with details on exclusive Kickstarter tiers, including a limited New York Comic Con ashcan, and Lawson’s reflections on why Mad Dog Morgan offers a fresh, heartfelt, and over-the-top experience for fans of both horror and wrestling.
