May | 2021 | Comic Art Festival Podcast

On todays episode we have not one, not two but three separate interviews with comic creators. Alex Paknadel comes on the podcast for the 2nd time to discuss how life has been since he was last on the show. He discusses his feelings on writing for Marvel as well as telling us all about his new Marvel comic, The Immortal Hulk Time of Monsters.

Following Alex we have Stu Taylor come and chat to discuss his current Kickstarter comic project Octobriana With Love: 50th Anniversary Special. Ocotbriana is a 64 page anthology comic on a cult underground Russian hero. Stu gives us the history of the character, talks about his work with Games Workshop and excites us with information on this new 50th anniversary special. Finally we chat to Fraser Campbell who’s currently kickstarting the first volume of Alex Automatic which he has written. The story follows the super spy adventures of Alex whom has been subjected to a series of illegal experiments to enhance his abilities.

We also have Tom on the show to review the latest in the brilliant Dunce series by Jens K Styve entitled Dunce Good Boy of the Year currently on Kickstarter. Finally we have a gander at the latest guests announced for the Lakes Festival. Tickets on sale soon.
