Talksplode #114 - Mitch Gerads

Author: iFanboy November 21, 2024 Duration: 1:11:21
Thanks to iFanboy Patrons, it's Talksplode time. He's been on the show before, but that was before Mitch's Meteoric Rise™. Largely known as Tom King's most prolific collaborator on Sheriff of Babylon, Mister Miracle, Strange Adventures, and many Batman stories over the years. Now he's about to release his first non-Tom™ comic in years, working with Tim Seeley on the upcoming Peacemaker Presents: The Vigilante/Eagly Double Features #1. Plus you can learn more about his upcoming docu-series, The United States of Bourbon. You'll get that and some deep comic book craft talk, and the beauty of the nine panel grid. Total Running Time: 01:09:22 Music: “Casanova, Baby" The Gaslight Anthem   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Every Wednesday, the conversation picks up right where it left off. iFanboy-Comic Books is that reliable weekly check-in with friends who just happen to have spent their lives immersed in panels and word balloons. Hosts Conor Kilpatrick and Josh Flanagan, whose rapport comes from decades of friendship, dive into the newest stacks from Marvel and DC, but also make sure to spotlight the compelling work from Image, Dark Horse, BOOM!, and a host of other publishers. The discussion is less a formal review and more a passionate, often hilarious dissection of what truly worked in a story or art, and what occasionally fell flat. They’re not just listing releases; they’re digging into the craft and the sheer fun of the medium, trying to pin down why certain comics resonate so deeply. Listening feels like being at the comic shop counter on a Wednesday afternoon, debating the picks of the week with the most knowledgeable people you know. This podcast captures the authentic joy and occasional frustration of being a dedicated reader, making it an essential companion for anyone who follows the weekly ritual of new comic book day.
