Mini-episode: Tribute to Glen Hammonds, the most important man in Outlaw Comics
This one’s a mini-episode, with me going solo again to talk about the late Glen Hammonds, a hidden figure in the development and popularization of Outlaw Comics. Hammonds, who passed away of pancreatic cancer in 2020, was the proprietor of the comics retailer, wholesaler, and publisher Raw Comics and was a legit patron of the Outlaw Comics arts, spending thousands of dollars a year commissioning art to help the artists make a living.

Ronin: Looking back at Frank Miller's most quietly influential work
We’re finally diving into Frank Miller’s Ronin this episode. Love him or hate him, you can’t really talk about the Dark Age of Comic Books without talking about Miller. His work on Daredevil and Dark Knight Returns are two of the most important touchstones for the emergence of the period. But Ronin is arguably more important. Music: https://krudler.bandcamp.com

We're joined by artist and illustrator Elinore Edge to talk about the first two volumes of ElfQuest: The Original Quest. We talk about the epic series' themes of home and belonging, Wendy Pini's incredible art and how it stood out against a sea of "house style" art from the big two, and how ElfQuest was the first comic to follow what is now the standard storytelling structure for most comics, especially independent comics.
