A slight change in plans brings another free-for-all episode, with all the comics riffing and off-the-cuff discussion you’ve come to expect! Mike & Greg take a slice of the Thanksgiving holiday to talk about creativity, the changing comic audience demographics, publishing cycles and mentalities through the decades, the influences of media rights in 21st century genre comics, Tumblr feeds and the older skill sets they are bringing back to the fore. And Spider-Man! Find out where Greg spent his post-tryptophan Black Friday, what deduction by The World’s Greatest Detective didn’t sit well with Mike, and more!
What was Stan thinking in courting the underground scene? Which artists were thought to be selling out to “The Man” (literally, in this case) and what was the going rate? Why were mainstream artists angry about it as well? Were the comics any good? Is the book worth getting, or is it just a mild curiosity piece?
