Larry Stroman & Todd Johnson - Tribe Comic returns after 30 years! I had the honor to talk with both Todd Johnson and Larry Stroman and what a blast it was! It was 30 years ago Larry and Todd came together and created Tribe. At the time Tribe was published by Image Comics and issue one sold over one million copies!

To this day it is the best-selling African American comic from African American creators! In fact, Tribe was released months before Milestone Comics released their first titles of Hardware, Icon, Blood Syndicate, and Static.

Todd and Larry have created over 200 characters for the Tribe universe and some of these characters will be seen in issue five and beyond. They will join the popular characters from the first four issues like Blindspot, Hannibal, Front, Steel Pulse, Lord Deus, and more! This initial Tribe title released a total of four issues. Later this summer Larry and Todd will be releasing issue five!

Gary Moloney joins the podcast to talk about his latest creation he and artist Daniel Romero have done called When the Blood has Dried that will be published through Mad Cave Studios.

Synopsis: Years ago, a stranger came to Carraig an Bhun, a little town on the edge of the Southern Territories. The locals eventually came to see this “blow-in,” Meabh of Cklonia, as one of their own. Now, Meabh has taken over as proprietor of The Lough Inn, finding a semblance of peace after a lifetime of adventuring… however, the proposed opening of a branch of the Adventurers’ Guild risks dragging her past into the present. What would the townsfolk do if they discovered their beloved barkeep was once part of a ruthless band of rogue sell-swords masquerading as noble heroes?

When The Blood Has Dried #1 is now available for pre-order on the official Mad Cave Studios website, and will be available at your favorite bookstore, local comic shop, and digital comic reader on April 10, 2024! www.madcavestudios.com

My next guest is Sara Frazetta, owner of Frazetta Girls which was started in 2013 with her mother Holly. Initially it was established to showcase her grandfather Frank Frazetta's exceptional artwork including a selection of vintage Frazetta posters and newly designed Frazetta signature apparel at comic conventions.
