awesome. soloman kane was pretty good.
excellent show guys
It’s official: Mignola’s freaking insane.
Great interview!
He seemed kind of arrogant to me.
Sweet podcast – I don’t get to catch up on the inner workings of Dark Horse often, so this was great insight as to what’s going on. Loved the whole piece on Solomon Kane too – now I definitely want to get the book and want that movie over here soon!
I’m really really upset that I didn’t get to be on this one. That said, these guys did a bang up job, and that makes up for it. Just as a fan, I loved this.
This podcast was one of the best presentations, I have heard on the site so far. Excellent!!!!
Great show, I’ll have to go back and re-listen to pick up on everything that was discussed (no more listening to podcasts while watching the NFL playoffs)…
