In this episode, we sit down with veteran writer/editor Tom Peyer for a career-spanning conversation that traces his remarkable journey from underground cartoonist to one of today's most innovative publishers. Beginning with his early years in underground papers and the Syracuse New Times, we delve into his pivotal editorial years at DC and Vertigo during the transformative 90s era. Tom shares insights from his beloved tenure on Legion of Super-Heroes, his creative vision for reviving Hourman, and his collaborative process with writers like Mark Waid. We spend a lot of time on AHOY Comics, the company that Tom co-founded and now leads as EIC, discussing its original vision and evolution into a unique voice in today's market. Through titles like The Wrong Earth, Tom has masterfully deconstructed superhero tropes, and he shares his perspective on the current comics industry landscape.
You can follow Tom everywhere from Instagram @tombobpeyer to Bluesky @tompeyer.bsky.social. And of course, you can find AHOY at their site comicsahoy.com and all over the socials.
