Even though we’re taking Labor Day week off, we’re still recording our fourth episode with our special guest, Colleen Coover, tonight around 9:30 PM eastern time. You’ve seen Colleen’s work in Marvel’s Lockjaw and the Pet Avengers, X-Men: First Class, and others, or in her own titles Banana Sunday (with Paul Tobin) and Small Favors!
Our theme is “All Ages,” so we’re going to talk to Colleen about drawing and writing comics for both a younger audience and adults, as well as our changing sensibilities about comics from childhood to grownup-dom. Or whatever. We count as grownups, right? I mean, just because Sims still has Batman sheets doesn’t make the guy a CHILD does it? Sheesh, you guys are so judgmental. Anyway, twitter us questions for Colleen tonight! Here’s Chris! Here’s me!
Chris and I also appear on the Television Zombies podcast this week, where we have a commentary on the Anita Blake comics that Chris annotates over at the ISB, and the coming TV series based on the comic in 2010. Thanks to Chris Piers for giving us the spot. Go check it out!
And also, previous guest Caitlin Kittredge‘s fourth Nocturne City novel, Witch Craft, was released yesterday. Go buy it now!
Loving the show. You guys are a great team.
I have to ask, did you guys have Coover lined up already, or was it my suggestion via Twitter that gave you the idea? 😉
We actually had Coover lined up a while ago. But keep the recs coming!
I am not even joking, I love Colleen Coover so much that if I ever have a daughter she will be named after her. That is how awesome she is you guys.
But when you combine Colleen Coover with Chris Sims… Good God, the awesome might kerplode my brain.
Is it rude to ask for a time signature for when the Anita Blake conversation starts? They seem fun, but I don’t have time to listen to the entire thing.
Yay! I love Colleen Coover. I can’t wait.
