  • 92: Black Science #18; Nailbiter #18; Paper Girls #3; Revival #35; They're Not Like Us #10

    In a rare display of endurance and pure joy, Under the Comic Covers tackles five issues in one episode for the first time, which we are calling "The UtCC Pentacular!" Fortunately, each of these five issues were amazing beyond either of our wildest hopes. Taking each issues in alphabetical order (because really, how can you possibly sort these books in any kind of order): Black Science #18; Nailbiter #18; Paper Girls #3; Revival #35; They're Not Like Us #10.

    Due to the very long run time of this podcast, we want to remind you all that we separate each book and it's individual letter section by chapters. If you are on an Apple device, just skip ahead to whichever chapter you are interested in... otherwise, we list the times for each chapter below. Thank you, and we really hope you enjoy this episode... we had a great time putting it together for you.

  • 87: Wayward Interview: Jim Zub, Steven Cummings, Tamra Bonvillain

    Under the Comic Covers is exceptionally happy to share our first interview with the almost complete creative team (sans letterer and essayist) behind one of our favorite books, Wayward. We are joined by writer Jim Zub, artist Steve Cummings, and colorist Tamra Bonvillain as we discuss their process, the various inspirations behind the art and the story, as well as hints as to what's to come in the upcoming arc beginning November 18th.

    Take a look at an upcoming panel of Steven Cumming's pencils... http://jimzub.tumblr.com/post/131961653560/a-special-sneak-peek-at-line-art-from-wayward-13 ... not his inks, his pencils... and listen to the interview to understand why this is so spectacular.
