  • Issue 30 | Rich Case
    Oct 21 2024

    Rich Case is a comic book artist best known for his work on Doctor Strange and the ultra-bizarre Grant Morrison scripted Doom Patrol. He was also the Inker on Sensational Spider-Man when I was writing it. One time, when we were in San Diego on a shuttle bus to the convention, Rich and I came up with what we were certain would be the greatest Batman villain ever. But once we got off the bus, both of us promptly forgot it, so now we’ll never know.

  • Issue 29 | Dan Brereton
    Oct 14 2024

    Dan Brereton is, simply put, a terrific artist. Inspired by some of the early painters drawn to comic book work in the early 90s, Dan brought an entirely new look to Superman and Batman, Robin, and Batgirl, to name a few. He wrote and painted his own creator-owned team called The Nocturnals and continues to stun with his unique, inimitable style.

  • Issue 28 | Shane Simek
    Oct 7 2024
    With most guests, when I ask them about their favorite comic or character, I have an idea as to what their answer might be. ‘Cause I know them, and probably have for some time. I’ve known Shane Simek for more than 20 years. He’s a fellow comic book fan and a long-time collector of original artwork in the form of the commissions he gets at the various conventions we go to. And he’s always happy to share with me and Craig the truly awesome pieces from some of the truly awesome artists he’s befriended. I did not anticipate his choice for favorite comic. * This episode includes an excerpt of "You Only Live Once" by The Strokes Join our Patreon community! https://www.patreon.com/randomactsofcomicspodcast
