Description

In the first of four episodes created at this year's HeroesCon in Charlotte, NC, Andy and Derek talk with a variety of artists, writers, and editors. Well...Derek talked with everyone. By his own admission, Andy was a little lazy, sitting back and letting Derek do all of the work with the microphone. Regardless, the result is a series of brief interviews with diverse creators, some who have been on the podcast before (such as Andy Hirsch and Ryan Browne) and others whose work the guys have just discovered. On this episode you will hear conversations with Amanda Rachels about her work, Flesh of White Karla Pacheco on her book, Inspector Pancakes, and the art of naked titty pirate comics Andy Hirsch discussing Baker Street Peculiars and his upcoming book, Varmints Tom Neely and Keenan Marshall Keller about the future of their series, The Humans Magdelene Vasaggio on her new Black Mask series, Kim & Kim Tom Heinjes and Craig Yoe (who were tabling next to one another) about their recent Eisner Award nominations Ryan Browne on the wrap-up of God Hates Astronauts and his revamping of Blast Furnace: Recreational Thief! Andy Runton as he discusses the history of his all-age comic, Owly Enrica Jang about her love of adapting Edgar Allan Poe Oliver Ono on the Columbia College of Art and Design's comics anthology, Spitball Jeremy Haun and Jason Hurley about the reception of their Image series, The Beauty. Stay tuned over the next week for other episodes generated at the 2016 HeroesCon!

Titles in the series (100)

A weekly podcast focusing on the world of alternative, independent, and primarily non-superhero comics. (There's nothing wrong with superhero comics. We just want to do something different.) New podcast episodes become available every Wednesday and include reviews of graphic novels and current ongoing series, discussions of upcoming comics, examinations of collected editions, in-depth analyses of a variety of comics texts, and spotlights on various creators and publishers. The Comics Alternative also produces "special feature" programs, such as shows specifically dedicated to creator interviews, webcomics, on-location events, and special non-weekly themes and topics.
