In Episode #696, Wayne talks with several of the excellent comics creators from the 216-page modern fantasy anthology Concrete Arcanum: Living With Monsters, coordinated by Nathan Lueth, who returns to the podcast! They have a Kickstarter going on at this link, and it will conclude on Sunday, July 20 at 1:53 p.m. EDT.

Several of the great creators from the book participated in this interview, including Nathan himself, S. P. Burke, Mark Romero, Micki.ee, and Michael Howe. We discuss how this series (and new volume) came to be, delve into some of the fascinating stories there, and talk some with the creators about their creations. Be sure to back this terrific anthology as soon as you finish listening to our fun conversation!

It's been a long road, but we've made it to a brand new volume, a brand new creative team, and a world that is not the one we left behind.

This week in Episode #695, I talk with Ethan Sacks, accomplished creator of comics including Star Wars, Old Man Hawkeye, and Midnight Suns, and his daughter and co-writer, Naomi Sacks, who are telling an allegory of a deeply personal time in their lives called A Haunted Girl. They have a Zoop.gg crowdfunding event going on until about Thursday, June 12.

This book was originally published by Image Comics and Syzygy Publishing, and this hardcover edition contains all-new behind the scenes features and is the ultimate collector’s item for fans of this acclaimed supernatural horror story. The book is described this way: “The fate of all life on Earth depends on a girl who doesn't know if she wants to live. Cleo, a 16-year-old adopted Japanese-American whose anxiety and depression drives her to suicidal thoughts, is fresh out of the hospital and trying unsuccessfully to reintegrate back into her old life.” This campaign went live on the Zoop crowdfunding platform, Tuesday, May 6th.  This date was chosen specifically to coincide with World Mental Health Awareness month, due to the book’s subject matter. We explore how the series came to be, who the various characters are, and also talk about how these creatives worked together and what else they might have coming our way soon.

In Episode 694 this week, Damien Duffy from Parable of the Talents talks about his recently released sequel to Octavia E. Butler’s Parable of the Sower!

Damien was chosen to continue his successful work of translating Butler’s prose into the comics format, once again working with artist John Jennings. It’s described this way: “This series follows Lauren Olamina, a preacher’s daughter who develops a new religion, Earthseed, while traveling the dangerous and dystopian country. Duffy and Jennings bring the sci-fi classic to life with a beautifully drawn graphic novel adaptation. Parable of the Talents continues Butler’s masterful story set against a background of a war-torn continent under the control of Christian fundamentalist fascist state.” We discuss how this book came to be, who the various characters are, and what else we can expect from this high-power writer/artist team in the months ahead! Published by Abrams ComicsArt, this graphic novel can be found in local comics shops, in your local bookstore, or here on Amazon.com. Don’t miss it!
