MakingComics.com Gutter Talk Podcast

The moment Comic Underdogs partnered up with Making Comics Worldwide, it was only inevitable the co-founder, Michael Yakutis, would be on the show. However, when Adam sat down one on one with Michael, this news had not broken yet. Adam knew this, too. Still, toeing that line in this conversation made for good drama. Join Adam and Michael as they discuss everything from webcomics to withholding secrets.

There’s nothing we at Making Comics Worldwide like more than when an artist shares their creative process. In fact, that’s really what’s at the heart of these podcasts. So when an artist is willing to give others a backstage pass into their creative process and not just talk about the process but provide pictures of it, too,  we get excited because of how much of a visual educational tool that is for others. Plus, it’s just really cool of the artist to be that open. So when Elaine Tipping, artist and co-creator of Dubious Company and others, sent over the images of her process, we weren’t sure if we could wait long enough to share the podcast and pictures. Join Adam and Marisa as they sit down with Elaine to discuss everything from kotatsu to her current Kickstarter project.

We recently posted the live hangout Jason Brubaker and Daniel Lieske did for their successful Kickstarter campaigns, Sithra and Volume 1 of the book edition of Wormworld Saga, respectively. It’s only coincidence that this week’s flashback is with Daniel Lieske and about the Wormworld Saga. However, we get a unique look into where they once were in the process, as this conversation happened a couple years back, and just how far they’ve come along. Nothing like a little recorded time travel to gain knowledge.

However, before we listen in on that conversation, Adam and Kevin first discuss a few tidbits about the Making Comics Worldwide universe, highlight a couple points they noticed from listening to the podcast, and at times border on actual gutter talk. Hey, it’s not our fault childish double meanings exist.

There are numerous webcomics on the internet these days and like snowflakes, no two are alike. In this week’s Gutter Talk episode, Adam and Marisa chat with Egypt Urnash, or Peggy as she’s known in conversation, as they discuss what’s behind her amazing scrolling webcomic, Decrypting Rita, as well as perhaps one of every artist’s biggest fears when it comes to printing a comic, a fear that unfortunately for Peggy came to fruition.
