This episode is a real treat because I get to talk about one of my favorite ongoing series at a time where the ongoing series is becoming increasingly rare. I had legendary comic book artist Terry Dodson on awhile back with Pornsak Pichetshote talking about their Horizon Experiment project The Manchurian and Terry mentioned there was a new Adventureman arc coming out in early 2025. I jumped at the chance to lock him in again for a chat, and he's brought along long time co-creator and comics writer Matt Fraction to the party and what a party it is. Rarely do I get to talk about the intersection of comics and architecture but Adventureman's pages are coated with art deco rich adornment. We get into why New York is such a special setting for the book, some of their inspirations behind the project initially, and how the landscape of art deco manifests in different places as this volume, Family Tree, takes us out of the Big Apple and around the globe with three unique stand alone stories. What do luchadores and French sailors have in common? You'll have to see what's in store as the stylish epic pulp adventure series hits comic book shop shelves.

Adventureman Family Tree will be released on March 19th.

From the publisher

As the Connell family reels from the shattering events of ADVENTUREMAN: GHOST LIGHTS, they'll need to tap into the roots of the Adventureman family tree of heroes to make the world right again, starting with a luchador dynasty, savage savate kick-fighting, and the star-crossed teenage romance that brought Adventureman and Mme. Chagall the Superscientist together!
