Writer Julio Anta joins me to discuss his new Image Comics series Home.

The series is about a mother and son who flee their country to become American citizens only to be subjected by the family separation policy. What no one knows is that the young boy Juan is harboring a secret, He has superpowers.

Julio and I talk about the process of telling this story, the emotion involved in writing it and what he wants readers to take from the story. You can pick up the first issue of Home from Image Comics wherever you get your comics.
