Frank Gogol
The child of addicts, Frank’s a humble dude whose comics greatly reflect the world around him as he grew up. He spent much of his youth moving from place to place, with occasional stints in foster care and group homes as he dealt with his very complicated relationship with his mother. His first anthology collection, Grief contains short stories of addiction, betrayal and abandonment. Dead End Kids tells the tale of a group of Stephen King-esque outcasts as they try to solve the mysterious murder of one of their own, and No Heroine is about a woman trying desperately to stay clean – all the while doing her best to mend her relationship with her mother, find her place in this world, and kill as many vampires as she can. Volume 2 of Dead End Kids will be in stores in January, 2021.

Due to the COVID-19 crisis, the Perfect Bound Podcast is forced to take a hiatus. But before we shelter in place in order to weather this pandemic, we have one last show for you. This never-before-aired show, recorded in October of 2019, finds Chris, Cole, and Ben talking about horror comics. Specifically, COSMIC HORROR! Black Stars Above from Vault describes itself as “cosmic horror,” so we delve deep into this very specific horror sub-genre. And yeah, there’s a lot of Lovecraft.
If you’ve enjoyed listening to the show for the past five years, please consider donating to the Paycheck Security GoFundMe for Comics Dungeon and Corner Comics. We understand that everybody is having a hard time these days, but if you have anything to give, the employees of the Dungeon and Corner would certainly appreciate it.
