March 3, 2019: Richard Starking/Matt Warren

Covers from Ask for Mercy
 Comic legend and creator of the Elephantmen series Richard Starkings opens the show. We talk about the concept behind his new series “Ask for Mercy” –available exclusively on ComiXology Originals—a tale of Nazi demons and the group of supernatural warriors tasked with stopping them. We also talk the “graying” of the world of comics and how it's impacted the characters of this and other titles. We spend some time on our favorite characters, the notion of hope and it's reflected in certain titles.






Matt Warren

Matt Warren is up next, and with 40 years in the industry he has a lot to share. We talk about the advent of house music, how one made a career back in the era of vinyl and cassettes, and his upcoming tour for his debut album, “Music is My Life.”

On this week's podcast, I feature the song “Star-Crossed,” by the band Excorde, made up of Jimena Arroyo, from Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Jonnie Cook, from Chicago. This is a great tune and I hope you enjoy it.
