This week we’re back to the regular format and welcoming Tim Seeley, creator of Hack/Slash, co-creator of the new Revival, Witchblade writer and artist on a ton of other stuff! We talk about how Tim deals with the pluses and minuses of creating an exploitation comic, how satire doesn’t always seem like satire, doing something new with the zombie genre, why he doesn’t draw his own stuff more, the prevailing temperature in the Hack/Slash universe and much more!

As a lifelong saxophonist, absolute respect to Tim Seeley for calling Kenny G godawful 😀
I gotta say, when I heard what the ending to Braid was a few months ago, I was surprised that people were blown away by it. It’s such a lame twist.
I’m glad you guys are beginning to discover the wonders of Spectacular Spider-man. It’s hands-down my favorite adaptation of Spider-man in film/television.
I’d love to hear Chris’s thoughts on the show, so let me just add that The Enforcers are featured very prominently.
“Writing Cabin” reminds me of a Stephen King invention. Like something out of “Dark Half” or “Misery”
