In another creator spotlight episode I am thrilled to chat to one of my personal comic heroes and a true comic book legend - John McCrea
An Eisner award winner who for over 30 years John has been producing work for the likes of Marvel, DC, Rebellion, and Image. Drawing characters from my personal favourite, Hitman (Tommy Monaghan) to the recent Dead Eyes, he’s collaborated with writing legends such as Alan Grant, Gerry Duggan, and most famously Garth Ennis who he won the aforementioned Eisner with Hitman #34 - Of Thee I Sing.
We discuss his career in comics, the art of commissions and teaching. In addition we learn about his Kickstarter campaign for 'The Mighty World of McCrea' which is shaping up to be an absolute blast!
I had a great time chatting with John and I'm sure (like me) you'll really enjoy this episode especially hearing about the strangest commission he ever did!
