So glad to see this finally go on sale. I really enjoyed the 1st issue, but decided to wait around for the trade. Now I’m kind of sorry that I did as their issue sales weren’t exactly where they needed to be. I highly recommend people picking this up — plus Heavy Ink has it on sale for 35% off this week.
So glad to hear you guys interviewed Tom Fowler! I first heard about him on 11 O’Clock Comics, unfortunately it was too late and I missed the boat on this series when it was first released. I’ve been eagerly anticipating the trade ever since. I’ve loved his work ever since i found out about this series and I actually commissioned a kick ass piece from him featuring Sinestro, Atrocitus and Larfleez (http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pR-q9GB7alk/S3HLubI6ERI/AAAAAAAABOo/i2YvofdaLg8/s1600-h/evillanternscommissionrgb72.jpg) which is now framed and up on my wall next to a Brian Bolland Hal Jordan commission (believe it or not, Fowler’s is better). He’s a local boy and I’ll be going to a signing he’s doing in town on Wednesday and I look forward to meeting him. He’s always a great interview and I can’t wait to listen to this podcast!
Man I’ve been waiting for this for what seems like ages.
This was the mother of all edited interviews. I have about 30 mins of unused bits and fun stories. I hope you folks enjoy the talk. Tom is a great guy, and Mysterius is a book that should be on your shelves.
@ChrisNeseman Sooo are you saying we’ll be getting a director’s cut of this interview? I hope so
Ha! I don’t know. Come to C2E2 and I’ll let you listen to the unedited version for sure. 🙂
