Returning guest and rising comic book coloring superstar STEVE CANON is back for an unfiltered, no-holds-barred deep dive into the world of a professional colorist!
 
In this episode we bring the heat on:
  • His very first covers on the main Spawn title (Spawn #369 A & B with Raymond Gay & Danny Earls)
  • Coloring Danny Earls’ mind-blowing architectural covers for Sam & Twitch: Gangland
  • The Daniel Warren Johnson Youngblood relaunch variant for Rob Liefeld
  • Upcoming Dark Souls miniseries by George Mann
  • Alpha Clash comic (the lore book for the hot new tabletop game)
  • The real state of the comic industry in 2025 — creator-owned vs. the Big Two, building leverage, and surviving as a pro
  • AI in comics: helpful tool or existential threat? (and why the line is getting scary-blurry)
  • Why some “simple” covers take weeks while others are done in a day
  • Steve’s complete coloring workflow: Procreate → Clip Studio → Photoshop breakdown
  • Balancing full-time fatherhood while coloring some of the hottest books on the stands right now
    • If you love raw, behind-the-scenes comic talk with zero corporate filter, this is the episode you’ve been waiting for!
