As we continue to celebrate our two-year anniversary as a comics interview podcast in the month of February, I’m delighted to welcome one of the top writers in the game on with me today, Ram V, to discuss his new unique neo-noir crime drama writing collaboration with fellow White Noise Studio comics collective member Dan Watters, The One Hand/Six Fingers dropping in February from Image Comics. Ram is working with artist Lawrence Campbell on The One Hand that tells the detective’s perspective, and Dan is working with Sumit Kumar on Six Fingers which tells the killer’s perspective. When Ram pitched the idea to industry veteran editor Will Dennis his response was “I’ve been editing comics for over 20 years, and no one’s pitched me an idea like this. So, you’re either crazy or very smart. We’ll find out.” I’d definitely argue very smart after getting a chance to chat with Ram about it. The inspirations behind it were very unexpected but it gave me an opportunity to share a bit of love with a fellow Cormac McCarthy fan. I highly recommend you pick both series up to get the full experience. The One Hand dropped last week and is sold out at most retailers and is now headed to a second printing. Dan’s half Six Fingers comes out next week so make sure to snag it before they’re all gone.
