This week's audio podcast is a compilation of interviews I did from Fan Expo Canada, one of my favorite comic conventions I try to hit up every year. This year I got six interviews with comic artists that I think are doing things to shake up the comics industry and pop culture. The first four interviews are with people doing work at Image Comics who had a fantastic booth at the con and some of the best work being done in the current comics medium. Sam Sarkar is the author of the Vault, but he's actually much more than that, as we chat about his screen writing with Beverly Hills 90210 and other ventures. Chares Saule is the author of "27" a comic about the tragic curse that some rock stars face at the age of 27, usually resulting in their death. Dennis Hopeless told me about his graphic novel "Love Struck" about a rude punk girl working with an even ruder Cupid and Viktor Kalvachev gives me the lowdown on "Blue Estate" and his own mobster story. Junko Mizuno creates great band gig posters and spoke to me about her work. Then, when all is amost said and done Wordburglar breaks his way in to freestyle on his comics and nerdcore raps. Along the way I play some awesome indie pop and hip hop.
