Exclusive: Christian Ward Talks the Challenges and Triumphs of “ODY-C” at Image [Interview/Preview]

By David Harper | Oct 7, 2014 | Interviews

For those that don’t know, Multiversity’s a pretty big fan of artist Christian Ward. I remember the day “The Infinite Vacation” #1 came out very well, if only because seeing Ward’s art for the first time was a revolutionary look at an almost unmatched talent in comics. He blew our minds in that series and […]

Struble and Grace Return to the World of “Li’l Depressed Boy” [Interview]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Oct 7, 2014 | Interviews

Returning last week after an extended hiatus, “Li’l Depressed Boy: Supposed To Be There Too” brought everyone’s favorite sad ragdoll back onto the stands for the first of a series of new minis. Picking up where we left off, LDB, Spike and the gang arrived with aplomb as if we never missed a beat, and much […]

Retailers Talk the Sales of DC’s Futures End Month in Their Shops

By David Harper | Oct 6, 2014 | Interviews

Originally, it wasn’t even intended for the subject of DC’s Futures End lenticular covers fairing so poorly in shops to turn into a full piece like it did. I reached out to a number of retailers for the purpose of finding out how the books actually sold in their shops, and it ended up being […]

Del Duca and Keatinge Go International for “Shutter’s” Second Arc [Interview]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Oct 6, 2014 | Interviews

If you’re anything like me — a human with two eyes, a noggin behind and a heart below — then you undoubtedly fell in love with Image’s “Shutter,” written by Joe Keatinge and illustrated by Leila Del Duca. The story of Kate Kristopher as her adventurous past with her father catches up to her, the […]

David Rubín Talks the Magic of Comics and “The Rise of Aurora West” [Interview]

By David Harper | Sep 30, 2014 | Interviews

As I mentioned in my review of the book earlier today, “The Rise of Aurora West” artist David Rubín is not someone I was familiar with before that book. I’d seen him announced for the project, but the first time I read his sequential work was in this book, and now that I have, I’m […]

My E-mails with Ales, Part 2: On Clandestine Retaliators, Steely Nationalists and Colder Guerillas [Interview]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Sep 29, 2014 | Interviews

Last month, we featured a discussion pulled straight out of an e-mail discourse Ales Kot and I had been having since August 11th. In it, we discussed various elements of storytelling, particularly centered around his book “ZERO” which was just seeing its second collection released. Today, we present Part 2 of that discussion. Moving away […]

Brenden Fletcher and the Youth Movement of DC’s “Batgirl” and “Gotham Academy” [Interview]

By David Harper | Sep 29, 2014 | Interviews

Ever since their announcement, I’ve been incredibly excited about DC’s upcoming “Gotham Academy” launch (arrives Wednesday!) and change of direction for “Batgirl” (#35 is where it’s at next Wednesday). Between the towering creative talents that are behind the books (Cameron Stewart, Becky Cloonan, Brenden Fletcher, Karl Kerschl, Babs Tarr, Jordie Bellaire and Romain Gaschet!) to […]

Miner and Sawyer Team Up For A “Critical Hit” [Interview]

By Leo Johnson | Sep 29, 2014 | Interviews

It’s both easier than ever to be a small press creator, but also probably more difficult than ever to get your work seen by any real audience. In order to get noticed, it takes making something special, something out of the ordinary, something that will make a comic fan stop and look. Animals rights probably […]

Going Down Home with Jason Aaron and “Southern Bastards” [Interview]

By Leo Johnson | Sep 24, 2014 | Interviews

In a weird bit of synchronicity, I write this introduction and transcribe this interview as I head home for the first time in a few years. Much like Earl Tubb, the protagonist in the recently wrapped first arc of “Southern Bastards”, and Jason Aaron, I’m from a small Alabama town and no longer live there. […]

Sebela Plots Snake Plissken’s Tour of Post-Apocalyptic 1997 in “Escape from New York” [Interview]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Sep 24, 2014 | Interviews

While a decade as tumultuous and inventive as the 80’s is remembered differently by many people that survived it, the long-lasting effects that it has had on pop culture is undeniable. Chief amongst those contributions, though, is an advent in a certain type of cinematic adventure; most of our favorite cultural icons, heroes and heroines […]

Karen Traviss Gets Real With All-New “G.I. Joe” #1 [Interview]

By Chad Bowers | Sep 24, 2014 | Interviews

After several months of mandatory leave, “G.I. Joe” is back with an all new #1, and a new writer in novelist Karen Traviss, who’s ready to bring the real world to G.I. Joe like never before. Operating as the new “fourth season,” the book kicks off with a ne wdirection that spins a more realistic take […]

Matt Heistand Dives Into The “Deep Dive Daredevils” Kickstarter [Interview]

By Leo Johnson | Sep 23, 2014 | Interviews

Webcomics can often be in a tricky situation when they first come to print. They might have a steady stream of readers and site visits, but without a physical product it’s often a little difficult to make money. And without money it’s often difficult to make a print comic. Kickstarter has become a big part […]

Unlocking “Penny Dora and the Wishing Box” with Writer Michael Stock [Interview]

By David Harper | Sep 23, 2014 | Interviews

All-ages comics are often pretty rare breeds, which is a shame in my opinion. An all-ages story is a spectacular achievement in my book, as creating a story that works for people of many different ages is far more difficult than creating one that works for just one age. Or at least in my estimation […]

John Arcudi Gets Us Ready to “Rumble” in Upcoming Image Series [Interview]

By David Harper and Brian Salvatore | Sep 22, 2014 | Interviews

It’s easy to say for the whole Mignolaversity team that both writer John Arcudi and artist James Harren are amongst are very favorite creators and very favorite people in comics. Both immensely talented and a joy to talk to, Arcudi and Harren fit into the class of creator whose work qualifies as “buy on sight” […]

Fabian Rangel, Jr. Kickstarts Horror With “Six” [Interview]

By Leo Johnson | Sep 15, 2014 | Interviews

Self publishing comics is hard work. There’s lot of money and time that goes into making a comic, and both of those are usually something that people are short on. Thanks to Kickstarter, though, creators get not only get the funding for a comic, but get fans to be a part of the creation. One […]

Exclusive: Harbinger’s Faith Gets a Zero Issue from Dysart and Gill in December [Interview]

By David Harper | Sep 15, 2014 | Interviews

If you’re a fan of “Harbinger” over at Valiant Comics, odds are a big reason why is Faith Hebert, aka Zephyr. While she’s not the team leader, strategist or powerhouse, she’s the heart and soul, and the way that series writer Joshua Dysart depicts her makes her impossible to not love. Many readers have looked […]

Josh Williamson Crafts an Epic Fantasy with High Stakes in “Birthright” [Interview]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Sep 9, 2014 | Interviews

For Josh Williamson, the world is slowly becoming a creator-owned smorgasbord. With “Nailbiter” and “Ghosted” both coming out from Image/Skybound right now, a great deal of books already under his belt and with his involvement helping to revitalize Dark Horse’s superhero line with Project Black Sky, you’d think that the world is Williamson’s oyster right […]

Retailer Cliff Biggers Shares His Thoughts on Variants [Interview]

By Drew Bradley | Sep 9, 2014 | Interviews

You may not know his name, and you may never visit his comic shop, but Cliff Biggers has affected you. In addition to writing the nationally distributed Comic Shop News on a weekly basis, he also played a big part in getting Mark Bagley his start at Marvel. What singled him out for an interview […]

My E-mails with Ales, Part 1: Magic, Fungi, PTSD and the Shifting Focus of “ZERO” [Interview]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Sep 1, 2014 | Interviews

Over the past month or so, I’ve been exchanging e-mails with Ales Kot, as we often do. I feel this is important to state upfront because while Ales certainly finds himself being interviewed at various other outlets, our relationship is (assumedly) slightly different. Whether it’s the discussion of films that we think the other will […]

Talking “Shoplifter” and the Next Phase with Cartoonist Michael Cho [Interview]

By David Harper | Aug 27, 2014 | Interviews

Sometimes comics are well made, but you don’t really connect with it. Other times, they’re not the best, but you find some emotional truth in them. Other times, like with Michael Cho’s debut graphic novel “Shoplifter”, you find something that’s tremendously well crafted and that you find to be really impactful, and that’s where the […]

Exploring the Scene of the Crime in “the Fuse” v1, with Antony Johnston [Interview]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Aug 26, 2014 | Interviews

It’s a banner year for Antony Johnston. With new Image books on shelves like the critically acclaimed “Umbral” and “Wasteland” about to release its final issue, Johnston is a busy guy. But in addition to those books, Johnston has a second Image book out in the wild as well in the form of “The Fuse,” […]
