In this episode, we sit down with legendary artist-writer Phil Jimenez for an in-depth conversation spanning his remarkable three-decade career. From his early discovery of comics to his incredible break into the industry with four pages in DC's War of the Gods crossover, Phil shares his journey of sequential art success. We explore his evolution from artist to artist-writer with Tempest, his relationships with mentors Neal Pozner and George Perez, and his following in Perez's footsteps on iconic titles like Teen Titans and Wonder Woman. We also get into Infinite Crisis, his Vertigo work including The Invisibles with Grant Morrison and his own Otherworld, plus his significant contributions to Marvel's New X-Men and Spider-Man. Last but not least, Phil discusses his breathtaking work on Wonder Woman Historia, where he tackled the monumental world-building task that earned widespread critical acclaim.
