“It's a nice survey of the current comic book world and related industries. And each guest has a different 'how I broke into the business' story, so aspiring writers and artists should definitely take note.”
“With the stakes we are trying to aspire to it is not a job for rookies. We feel we have not taken guys who are over the hill either - which has been the case in the past. We've got guys at the peak of their careers.”
