100: Dirk Manning #2
October 12, 2019 00:36 - 59 minutes - 29.1 MBYou know, in the comic book world, issue #100 could be considered a collector’s item, so what better way to ring in this monumental occasion, than by taking us back to the beginning? No, I’m not rebooting the show. When I started this podcast, I made a list of creators I wanted to talk to. The very first person on that list was Dirk Manning. He was on the first episode of the show. He was the first person I ever interviewed in my horror comics journey. It was only fitting that his return r...
099: Timothy Bach
September 13, 2019 00:35 - 34 minutes - 18.3 MBThis week’s guest is Timothy Bach, the writer of The Family Graves from Source Point Press. Picture The Incredibles but instead of super heroes, the family is made up of monsters and that gives you an idea of what to expect from The Family Graves. The four-issue mini-series is getting collected in a trade paperback coming out on October 23rd so be sure to pre-order it at your local comic shop. The Family Graves is also part of the partnership between Source Point Press and Comics Experi...
098: Michael Moreci
September 03, 2019 14:28 - 40 minutes - 21.3 MBThis week’s guest is Michael Moreci, the co-writer of The Plot, coming soon from Vault Comics. Michael wrote this with Tim Daniel as part of Vault’s new annual horror imprint, Nightfall. I got a look at the first issue and it’s pretty awesome. There’s already some great buzz about it too so be sure to check it out when the first issue debuts on September 25th. I’ve followed Michael’s career for some time. He first popped up on my radar with Hoax Hunters, a series he co-wrote with Steve S...
097: Jordan Thomas
August 22, 2019 18:08 - 34 minutes - 18.5 MBThis week’s guest is Jordan Thomas, the writer of Frank at Home on the Farm. This indie comic is super unsettling and will have you looking over your shoulder for hours after reading. Jordan is currently running a Kickstarter campaign to fund the release of the second issue. I got to pick his brain about the creation of the book, how he established the disturbing tone, and his experiences in horror and comics. There is still plenty of time to back the Kickstarter campaign for Frank at Hom...
096: Mark London
August 01, 2019 15:55 - 41 minutes - 20.9 MBThis week’s guest is Mark London, the CEO and CCO of Mad Cave Studios as well as the writer of Wolvenheart, an upcoming victorian time travel thriller. This was an awesome chat because Mark has a multi-layered perspective of the comic book industry. On one side, he’s a creator and on the other, he’s running a business. I also picked his brain about the Mad Cave talent search where he’s looking for new, up-and-coming writers and artists to work on some of the Mad Cave titles. Wolvenheart i...
095: Ryan King
May 25, 2019 12:53 - 40 minutes - 37 MBThis week’s guest is Ryan King, the writer of Cricketsong, currently on Kickstarter. I spoke with Ryan about his journey on this book, collaboration with artist Daryl Toh, experience with Kickstarter, and starting out in comics. Cricketsong is a blend of genres, playing in the same realm as From Dusk Till Dawn and The Hitcher. I’ve backed the project myself and I encourage you to do the same. Ryan can be found online at his official website, RyanKingWrites.com and on Twitter and Instag...
094: Rich Douek
April 04, 2019 18:19 - 32 minutes - 29.9 MBThis week’s guest is Rich Douek, the writer of Road of Bones, coming in May from IDW Publishing. It’s a pretty creepy comic, set in 1953 in Siberia where a terrifying monster lurks in the darkness. I got a look at the first issue and it’s pretty solid. Plus, it’s illustrated by Alex Cormack, who you might know from Sink so that’s always a good thing. Rich can be found online on Twitter and Instagram as @RDouek and at Facebook.com/guttermagic. CONTACT: Email | Twitter SUBSCRIBE: RSS | i...
093: Joey Weiser
March 07, 2019 20:48 - 40 minutes - 37.4 MBThis week’s guest is Joey Weiser, the creator of Ghost Hog, coming in May from Oni Press. You’re not supposed to judge books by their cover, but how can you go wrong with a title like that? This is an all-ages original graphic novel about..well...a ghost hog. If you want to try out Ghost Hog before buying it, you can check out a completely original story in the Oni Press Free Comic Book Day issue on May 4th. Try that out, then come back on May 8th to pick up the graphic novel with entir...
092: Magdalene Visaggio
February 08, 2019 17:00 - 37 minutes - 34 MBThis week’s guest is Magdalene Visaggio. You might know her work from comics such as Kim & Kim, Quantum Teens Are Go, and that really awesome Superman story in last year’s Cursed Comics Calvacade. She’s writing a new series due out in March from Oni Press called Morning in America. I got a look at the first issue and it’s pretty awesome. What I liked most about this conversation is Magdalene’s perspective on the ‘80s. Morning in America is set in 1983 so there’s a nostalgia factor in the...
091: John Horlsey
February 01, 2019 17:00 - 34 minutes - 31.2 MBThis week’s guest is John Horlsey, the creator of The Eynes, a new anthology series currently on Kickstarter. John has orchestrated an elaborate and impressive setup for this comic, pulling the strings behind the scenes to tell an overarching narrative using short stories from creators all around the world. Each tale looks at different characters from across time that have been fighting monsters for ages. It’s pretty cool stuff and it’s clear from speaking to John that this project is in g...
090: Ben Kahn #2
January 03, 2019 14:52 - 41 minutes - 37.8 MBThis week is the return of writer, Ben Kahn. I last spoke with him way back in episode #25 when he was just starting his new series, Heavenly Blues with Scout Comics. That six-issue series has now completed and has not only been collected in a trade paperback, available now, but has been optioned as a feature film, so there’s some pretty exciting times ahead for Ben. Ben can be found online at his official site, BenKahnComics.com and on Twitter as @BenTheKahn. In other news, 2018 has ...
089: NYCC 2018 Special #2
December 20, 2018 20:40 - 22 minutes - 20.5 MBYes, I’m still playing catch up. The last few months of 2018 have been insane. I’m aiming to get into more of a regular schedule with next year. Anyway, here’s the second half of my New York Comic Con interviews. There are three here for you, all of which have books out now from Image Comics. First up is Joe Casey with MCMLXXV, then Gisele Lagace with Exorsisters, and then Ryan Cady for Infinite Dark. Be sure to listen all the way to the end because I asked a bunch of creators what cla...
088: NYCC 2018 Special #1
November 10, 2018 08:00 - 35 minutes - 32.7 MBThis week I’m playing catch up so I’ve got my first batch of interviews from New York Comic Con for you. I did six altogether and I’m breaking them up into two episodes. This first batch includes Sanford Greene and David F. Walker from Bitter Root, then Christofer Emgard, the writer of The Whispering Dark, and finally, Evan Dorkin, Veronica Fish, and Andy Fish from Blackwood. I’ll interject in between each interview to give some additional specifics. Bitter Root #1 is scheduled for release...
087: Felipe Cagno
November 03, 2018 09:37 - 49 minutes - 45.5 MBIt’s been a little while, huh? I know it’s weird for a horror-themed podcast to go on hiatus in October, but here’s what happened, guys. New York Comic Con screwed up my schedule big time. It happened to fall at a time that I had no other interviews lined up so it was a perfect storm of sorts. I’ve just recently dug myself out of that hole and I’m getting back into the swing of things. So, on with the show! This week’s guest is Felipe Cagno, the writer of The Few & Cursed, which he desc...
086: Dave Dwonch
October 05, 2018 08:00 - 58 minutes - 53.4 MBThis week I had an awesome chat with writer Dave Dwonch. His work includes Prom of the Dead and the new webcomic, Mind Palace, which creates a singular universe of all of Bryan Fuller’s TV creations, including Hannibal. Dave has an abundance of stories and we just scratch the surface in this conversation. I definitely want to get him back on the show to talk some more. Dave can be found online at OutOfMind.co. You can find Mind Palace at MindPalaceComic.com and you can purchase Prom of ...
085: Laszlo Tamasfi
September 28, 2018 08:00 - 39 minutes - 36.1 MBThis week I spoke with Laszlo Tomasfi, the writer of the anthology webcomic The Observatory, soon to be collected with some all-new material from Caliber Comics. Laszlo is a long time listener of the show and has been breaking into the comic industry with a number of one-page horror stories. They’re all collected in this new book called Caliber Presents: Volume 4 - The Observatory, due out on November 28th. In related news, my audio troubles never cease. Something happened halfway through...
084: Michael Hague
September 21, 2018 08:00 - 31 minutes - 28.6 MBThis week’s guest is writer / artist Michael Hague. He recently created an incredible adaptation / continuation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula called Mammon, currently available from Dark Horse Comics. Hague’s artwork is something completely unique that you won’t find anywhere else on comic shelves today. It’s a very interesting story with a number of unexpected twists and turns. Plus, there are monkey ninjas in it. CONTACT: Email | Twitter SUBSCRIBE: RSS | iTunes | Google Play | Stitcher M...
083: Drew Edwards & Paulo Hernandez
September 14, 2018 08:00 - 50 minutes - 46.3 MBThis week’s guests are Drew Edwards and Paulo Hernandez. Drew is the creator and writer of Halloween Man, a long-running horror webcomic. Paulo is one of the artists on the new Halloween Man anthology comic Bat City Special, currently on Indiegogo. This comic serves as a spooky love letter to the city of Austin, Texas and it’s clear from speaking to these two creators that they care deeply for that town. There’s still plenty of time to back the Indiegogo campaign. Rewards include numero...
082: Ben Grisanti #2
September 07, 2018 08:00 - 47 minutes - 43.4 MBBen Grisanti returns! He was last on the show to talk about Polybius Dreams, his ‘80s horror comic with a haunted video game. This time around, Ben has a new creepy one-shot called Secret Santas that could very well become a new holiday tradition...just not one you’ll share with your kids. Ben is currently running a Kickstarter campaign to fund the release of Secret Santas. It’s well worth checking out. You can find more about Ben’s work at HypnoticDogComics.com. Ben can also be found ...
081: Tom Ward
August 31, 2018 08:00 - 47 minutes - 43.1 MBThis week’s guest is Tom Ward, the writer of Merrick: The Sensational Elephantman.

The character has even had a crossover with another indie character, Dr. Crowe. Tom is currently running a Kickstarter campaign to fund the release of issues #7 and #8. You can check out the entire first issue for free before backing the campaign. Tom can be found online on Twitt...
Interlude 2: If You Watch This, I'll Read That #1
August 24, 2018 08:00 - 56 minutes - 51.8 MBDue to a scheduling snafu, I don’t have a guest this week. I’ve got a few horror comics creators lined up for the next batch of episodes, but this ended up being an off week. Don’t worry though. I’m prepared for this. This has happened once before in between episodes 25 and 26 where I played the introduction episode of the first, but lost HorrorTalk podcast, If You Watch This, I’ll Read That. If you haven’t listened to that episode, here’s a quick recap. The show is hosted by myself and ...
080: Zack Kaplan
August 17, 2018 08:00 - 53 minutes - 48.6 MBThis week’s guest is writer Zack Kaplan, the writer of Lost City Explorers, Port of Earth, and the reason I wanted to talk to him on this show, Eclipse. This is an awesome horror / sci-fi comic where the sun is the villain. If you step foot into daylight, your flesh will melt instantly. As a fair-skinned individual, I’ve always know the sun was up to no good. You can get the first two trade paperbacks of Eclipse now, which collect the first 8 issues. Eclipse #9, which kicks off the penu...
079: Greg Smith, Michael Tanner & Zach Lehner
August 10, 2018 08:00 - 50 minutes - 46.6 MBThis week I’ve got a packed house for you.

The comic follows a group of scouts as they return from a camping trip to find a zombie apocalypse has decimated their hometown. The second volume, Out of the Woods, just dropped this week. Quick note on the audio for this show. We had some technical difficulties getting Zach connected, but we figur...

You can check out a preview of the first issue on the Kickstarter page. I’ve already sung it’s praises with ...

July 27, 2018 08:00 - 49 minutes - 45 MBThis week’s guest is K. Michael Russell, the colorist of such horror comics as Hack Slash: Resurrection, Glitterbomb, Yakuza Demon Killers, and Steele Vs. He graciously answered all of my ignorant questions about coloring and his process. Colorists are an underappreciated portion of the comics industry. K. Michael Russell can be found online at his official site, ComicColor.com. He also runs an online art school at 01ArtSchool.com and a YouTube channel showing how to color comics. He’s s...
076: M.L. Miller #2
July 20, 2018 08:00 - 56 minutes - 52 MBThis week, writer M.L. Miller returns to talk about the conclusion of Gravetrancers from Black Mask Studios. This has been a trippy and unpredictable read. No character is safe from this insanity. The fourth and final issue of Gravetrancers is due out on July 25th. You can find more from M.L. Miller at his official site, MLMillerWrites.com. He also has his own podcast called Spoiler Alert. In other news, the first volume of Long Lost from previous guest, Matthew Erman and artist Lisa ...
075: Joseph Oliveira #2
July 13, 2018 05:00 - 43 minutes - 40 MBThis week’s guest is Joseph Oliveira, returning to the show to talk about his new project, Wendigo Wood. I had first spoken with Joseph over a year ago, early in his comics career. Since then he’s had a few successful Kickstarter campaigns to fund the release of the first two issues of Ghost Island and an anthology called Folk Tales of the Cryptids. He’s on Kickstarter again to fund the release of the first issue of Wendigo Wood, another comic that gives me a perfect excuse to avoid the ou...
074: Phil Butehorn
July 06, 2018 08:00 - 1 hour - 56.4 MBThis week I’ve got something a little different for you. I speak with Phil Butehorn, another writer just starting out in the horror comics industry.

Michael is part of a group of creators in the UK steadily pumping out some solid indie comics so I’ve been eager to speak to him. Unfortunately, this interview gets cut short due to some day job responsibilities. I intend to have Michael back on the show soon along with some of his colleagues from Madius Comics. Michael will be tabling at Glassgow Comic Con this Saturday, ...
072: Nick Keller, Conor Nolan & Kelly Fitzpatrick
June 22, 2018 08:00 - 55 minutes - 50.4 MBThis week, for the first time, I’ve got three guests on the show. I spoke with Nick Keller, Conor Nolan, and Kelly Fitzpatrick, the writer, artist, and colorist (respectively) of Bedtime Games. This is an awesome new horror series from Dark Horse Comics set to debut on Wednesday, June 27th. It has a definite Stephen King vibe to it too as the comic follows three kids who head into a tunnel looking for mischief and end up uncovering a horrifying monster. Nick can be found at his official...
071: Michael Stark
June 15, 2018 08:00 - 58 minutes - 53.6 MBThis week’s guest is Michael Stark, the co-writer of Wolverton: Thief of Impossible Objects. Michael’s journey is pretty interesting as he had originally intended for Wolverton to be a feature film, but producers told him they were only buying IP that was a comic book first...so he made it into a comic. He used Kickstarter to fund the printing of the first issue of a planned six issue series. You can learn more about Wolverton at the official site, WolvertonComicBook.com and on Twitter @...
070: Matthew Summo
June 08, 2018 08:00 - 58 minutes - 54 MBThis week’s guest is Matthew Summo, the writer of Dedication from the now defunct Double Take Studios. Matthew’s story is fascinating as he was front and center for the rise and fall of Double Take so I pick his brain about how it all went down. His work has already been featured in a recent FUBAR anthology. Matthew can be found online at his official website, MattSummo.com and on Twitter @mattmanbegins. CONTACT: Email | Twitter SUBSCRIBE: RSS | iTunes | Google Play | Stitcher Music b...
069: Jacob Semahn & Jorge Corona (w/ Jen Hickman)
June 01, 2018 08:00 - 1 hour - 55.1 MBThis week I’ve got a do-over interview with Jacob Semahn and Jorge Corona, the writer and artist of No. 1 with a Bullet from Image Comics. You may recall that I spoke with them previously but the audio files were corrupted so the interview got scrapped. They were kind enough to speak with me again now that the series has wrapped up. No. 1 with a Bullet is a very timely and chilling look at our use of technology and social media. It could not be more relevant. As a bonus, colorist Jen Hic...
068: Enrica Jang
May 25, 2018 08:00 - 48 minutes - 44 MBThis week’s guest is Enrica Jang, the writer of Crossing from Red Stylo Media. This is a solid and unique ghost story comic. I was blown away by the first issue so I was quick to back her new Kickstarter campaign for the second and third issues. At the time of this recording, Enrica is halfway to her funding goal with three weeks left. After the campaign meets its budget, the only stretch goals planned are for more comics which is something I really respect. I think we can all get behind ...
067: James Powell
May 18, 2018 08:00 - 1 hour - 55.5 MBThis week’s guest is James Powell, the writer of House of Fear, an all-ages horror anthology comic. There are three issues of House of Fear out now, each dealing with different horrors, including Lovecraftian creatures, haunted houses, and...snowmen. I assure you, they’re all pretty creepy, although not scary enough to give your kid nightmares. James has found a nice sweet spot. Quick note on this episode. James mentions plans for an upcoming Kickstarter. Those have changed a bit since ...
066: Pornsak Pichetshote & Aaron Campbell
May 11, 2018 08:00 - 55 minutes - 51.1 MBThis week I’m happy to welcome Pornsak Pichetshote and Aaron Campbell, the writer and artist of Infidel from Image Comics. I was really excited to speak with these two as Infidel has been an awesome read so far. It’s easily one of the best horror comics in 2018. The first two issues of Infidel are available now and issue #3 drops on Wednesday, May 16th. Pornsak can be found on Twitter @real_pornsak and Aaron can be found on Twitter @olmancampbell. In other news, early guest Cody Andr...

064: Michael R. Martin #2
April 27, 2018 08:00 - 52 minutes - 48.4 MBI’ve got my second return guest this week with Michael R. Martin, the writer of the incredible vampire comic, Blood & Dust. Michael was one of the first guests on the show, appearing way back in episode #9. Since then, he’s successfully funded the second volume of Blood & Dust on Kickstarter and he’s working on the next volume now. The book is a crazy new take on the vampire mythos and it is some great stuff. You can buy both volumes of Blood & Dust at the official site, BloodAndDustComic...
063: Dave Scheidt & Scoot McMahon
April 20, 2018 08:00 - 57 minutes - 52.9 MBThis week’s guests are Dave Scheidt and Scoot McMahon, the creative team behind Wrapped Up from Lion Forge Comics. I caught up with them briefly during New York Comic Con last year and I’ve been eager to speak to them at length on the show. Wrapped Up is a super fun, all-ages comic about a mummy kid named Milo and the wacky adventures he gets into involving pizza, vampires, pizza, gorillas, pizza, witches, and did I mention pizza? The first volume of Wrapped Up is available at your loca...
062: Clay Mcleod Chapman
April 13, 2018 08:00 - 45 minutes - 41.5 MBThis week’s guest is Clay Mcleod Chapman, the writer of Lazaretto from BOOM! Studios. This was hands down, one of the creepiest books I’ve read in the past year. It’s the kind of comic that will have you washing your hands afterward and for good reason. The series ran for five issues and you may be able to find them at your local comic shop. The trade paperback isn’t out for a bit, but you can definitely pick up digital copies of the single issues on ComiXology or Kindle. This one comes h...
061: Denis St. John
April 06, 2018 08:00 - 48 minutes - 44.4 MBThis week’s guest is writer / artist Denis St. John. He has a collection of assorted spooky stories available now called The Land of Many Monsters: And Many More Monster Tails. It features creatures of all shapes and sizes including fishmen, werewolves, and dinosaurs. It was really fun talking to Denis because you can tell he loves what he’s doing. It shows on the page too. Denis can be found online at his official website, DenisComix.com, on Twitter @DenisComix, on Instagram @DenisSain...
060: Jen Vaughn
March 30, 2018 08:00 - 51 minutes - 46.8 MBThis week’s guest is Jen Vaughn, the writer of Goosebumps: Download and Die from IDW Publishing. I had previously spoken with Chris Fenoglio, the artist of the last Goosebumps series. This one is an entirely new tale and it’s off to a pretty great start. It’s a fun all-ages story that works for adults and kids alike. If you’ve listened to this show, you’ll know how much of an influence Goosebumps is on an entire generation of horror creators so I’m so excited to see it return and in comic ...
059: Matt Miner #2
March 23, 2018 08:00 - 50 minutes - 45.9 MBThis week I’ve got my first return guest, Matt Miner. I had previously spoken with him about his work on Gwar: Orgasmageddon and This Nightmare Kills Fascists. This time around, Matt’s here to talk about his new slasher comic, Poser, available now from Waxwork Comics. It’s a unique comic in that it comes with its own soundtrack on vinyl which really adds to the overall experience. Poser #1 is currently available exclusively through Waxwork Comics. The trade paperbacks of Gwar: Orgasma...

March 16, 2018 08:00 - 32 minutes - 29.6 MBThis week’s guest is writer / artist, Nevin Arnold, the creator of Monsterella. Nevin is currently using Kickstarter to fund the release of the second issue of Monsterella, an anthology comic in the vein of classic Vampirella and 2000 AD. He’s already far surpassed his funding goal and he’s plowing through stretch goals. We recorded this on the day the Kickstarter campaign launched. You’ll still have some time to back the project after hearing this. I backed it myself. Nevin can be fou...

056: Josh Finney
March 02, 2018 08:00 - 57 minutes - 53 MBThis week’s guest is Josh Finney, the writer of Casefile: Arkham. If that title sounds familiar, it might be because I’ve previously spoken with Patrick McEvoy, the artist of the series way back in episode 20. Casefile: Arkham is a series of original graphic novels blending Lovecraftian monsters with pulp detective stories. The second, Her Blood Runs Cold, is set for release on March 5th. I’ve read and reviewed both of them after backing the Kickstarter campaigns and really dug them. J...

053: Will Allred
February 09, 2018 08:00 - 47 minutes - 43.2 MBThis week’s guest is Will Allred, the writer of the vampire comic, Diary of Night. Will is currently running a Kickstarter campaign to fund the release of the first volume of the book. It’s got an interesting take on the vampire mythos, grounding it in the present day. He’s also added some fun backmatter that shows the character’s journey throughout history. I’ve backed the campaign myself and I encourage you to do the same. If you want to try out Diary of Night before backing the Kicks...
052: Simon Birks
February 02, 2018 18:37 - 47 minutes - 43.4 MBFirst off, sorry for the delay in getting this episode live. This week kind of got away from me. Don’t worry. The show is not going anywhere and I already have the next few episodes recorded. Of course, my first real delay comes in episode #52, representing a full year of podcasting here. Well, that’s embarrassing. Thank you to all who have listened to the show and spread it around. It is truly appreciated. This week’s guest is Simon Birks, the writer of Sinners, Hexes, and Gone. He...
