The creator of the Crogan Adventures series (the most recent installment of which, Crogan’s Loyalty is brand new), Chris Schweizer, sits down with Chris and Matt this week to tell ’em a few stories. Among them: How he came to work with Oni Press, just where the books’ framing stories came from, how much of his own family you can find in the books, why the series isn’t in chronological order, what will happen if he goes crazy, his work at the Savannah College of Art and Design, and much more! Plus, we answer a listener question very near and dear to our hearts.

The after the end music bit totally sells it, why wasn’t there more of this in the interview? For shame.
After hearing Schweizer’s talk about political disagreements, I want him to handle a graphic novel adaption of Jonathan Haidt’s “The Righteous Mind.”
The Pit is awesome! Also Capital Comics in Raleigh is pretty good too.
