We drop all pretense this week and spend almost an hour talking to Daniel Butler and Matt Digges, the artists of Copernicus Jones and Awesome Hospital, respectively! We give them both an opportunity to vent about the hardest stuff we’ve given them to draw, how we get together from across the country, doing webcomics, going to cons, and more!

It sounds like the guy you’re talking about in Polly & the Pirates is Emperor Norton I, who was actually a real person. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emperor_Norton
My favorite luchador mask belongs to Sensei Ping, of Middleman fame.
