Lord Mesa Interview - TAROR #21

Running on Rooftops celebrated our second anniversary this year, and to celebrate we are doing a number of interviews on the idea of fandom. We will be conducting a few interviews with some people in the online comic book community about doing geeky things and what being a fan means to them. These interviews will go over what they do, why they do it, and how they've grown from the experience.   Lord Mesa Interview We had the pleasure of interviewing Lord Mesa, a fantastic and prolific artist who's work has been seen all over the web. You may have seen him post his reactions to the previous night's CW show, or saw him at Hero's and Villians Fan Fest, but we had the chance to talk to him about being a fan. We talk about his art, his stylistic inspirations, and a bit of advice for any artist listening. We also talk about how being a fan opened him up to opportunities to meet stars and give back to the community. Have a look at his Instagram, have a  listen to the show!
