Kit Anderson Interview - Second Shift & Safer Places

Cryptid Creator Corner from Comic Book Yeti - A Comic... ·

2025/05/02

I’ve been thinking of stories as transportation lines recently, maybe that’s because I’ve been trying to catch up on some older Star Trek episodes lately and thinking about how transporters work too much, but there’s something fascinating about that idea of being transported from the physical space in which you reside and into the one fabricated in your mind especially when someone builds some entertaining scaffolding for you in a narrative. Now the special ones, they pull a magic trick and get you

Paul Carroll joins Jimmy on the podcast today to discuss the Kickstarter campaign for the 5th Limit Break Comics Anthology: Bump in the Night, which, and how cool is this, it's all about Cryptids!

The team behind the excellent Finger Guns is back with a new series from Mad Cave Studios! Justin Richards and Val Halvorson team-up again for The Slasher's Apprentice. Issue #1 is out April 30th. This new series is quite a departure from the subject matter of Finger Guns, but no less compelling.

Last time Gerry Duggan was on the show, we were talking about his photography project Timing/Luck and ironically what made me a fan of his work isn't The X-Men or any other of the of great titles and characters he's penned and developed over the years, what made me fall in love with it was a breakdancing skeleton named Walt. You might be asking yourself why that may be. A few years ago I lost one of my best friends to a motorcycle accident and at the time while processing the grief as best I could,

2025/04/23

I've got a family history with moonshine. It started when I was a little kid riding around on my grandfather's tractor. He always had a half gallon Mayfield milk jug full of something or other he'd periodically take a swig from and, yes, more often than not the later on in the day it got, the more likely we were to end up in a ditch but that was all part of the fun of our time together. Later I learned he was a part of the illicit trade selling homebrew supplies out the back of his grocery store and

Now that he's read it and recorded the podcast he's been more devoted than ever around the Yeti Cave to convert others to readers. Johanna is an illustrator and artist with a BFA in animation. She discusses the story and art of The Ghostkeeper, the influence of Oscar Wilde, and

Alice Darrow Interview - Tramps of the Apocalypse

2025/04/18

Sometimes you just need a good diversion to distract you from the dumpster fire that is modern life and few things can immediately take you on the emotional rollercoaster like a good satirical dystopian narrative so I've got first time guest Alice Darrow on with me today to help me break down what is the surprise comic book of 2025 for me, Tramps of the Apocalypse. Sitting somewhere between Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! and Idiocracy, this is a hilarious dressing down of the modern manosphere

Listen up, fellow Bunnheads, Cullen is back! Cullen Bunn returns to the Cryptid Creator Corner for a 4th time and there is so much to cover.

Jimmy and Cullen discuss his recent trip to Emerald City Comic Con, his involvement in AWA's Ultimate Oz Universe, Quill & Codex (the official Cullen Bunn Role-Playing System) from Outland

Anthony Iannaccio Interview - Superguy

Cryptid Creator Corner from Comic Book Yeti - A Comic... ·

2025/04/04

I’ve been talking and thinking recently about the intersection of comedy and comics. It’s sort of right there in the name but it’s rare to see a comedy forward book released right now which strikes me as particularly odd given the challenging times in which we are living mid 2025 when we could all use a good laugh. My guest today, Anthony Iannaccio, is no stranger to comedy as one of the hosts of the popular podcast Comics and Chronic and he’s making his inaugural debut with a new 28-page

Steve Urena Interview - Zombie Date Night 2

2025/04/03

The intersection of the genres of horror and humor is a fascinating one. It’s something I’ve brought up several times on the podcast since my first chat with comics writer Kyle Starks. They share the same cadence and rhythms, and it should be no surprise that the recipe comes out as delicious as peanut butter and chocolate, so I was delighted to see Steve Urena’s email hit my InBox as someone who’s work blending the two I’ve come to admire. Over the last few years, he’s been throwing clever trope

2025/03/28

It’s becoming increasingly clear from my recent chats on the podcast and all the ones that happen in emails or DMs that a substantial part of the glass ceiling for women working in the comics medium centers around the editorial level, but is that accurate and what exactly might specific barriers be? Now I don’t know about you, but to me, you ask an expert. So, I reached out to Rachel Pinnelas. Rachel, has been an Assistant Editor at both Marvel and DC, has worked as a journeyperson across the

We live in the era of AI. The technologies many of us saw for the first time in sci-fi movies are now the technological experiments that will define humanity for generations to come. In some ways, that’s an exciting concept. How does nature versus nurture apply to machine learning and what exactly are the boundaries we will set to protect us? Human beings are historically bad at implementing guard rails with our new toys. What happens when they are in the hands of a madman? It’s something that has

That lead me to reaching out to Barbra Dillon, Editor-In-Chief of Fanbase Press, a GLAAD Winning and Eisner and Harvey Nominated publisher and geek culture website. Who better than Barbra to cover the angle from both the vantage point of a small indy comics publisher as

It's more Marvel March Madness with returning guest David Pepose! Jimmy and David discuss Space Ghost (published by Dynamite) and Cable: Love and Chrome. First, if you're not reading Space Ghost, you should be, because it's phenomenal. Second, David talks about the direction he wanted to take Cable into and what he wanted to see from a character that already has so much history, some of it fairly complicated. Jimmy found the new series a great jumping on point for old and new fans of Cable. David

This episode is a real treat because I get to talk about one of my favorite ongoing series at a time where the ongoing series is becoming increasingly rare. I had legendary comic book artist Terry Dodson on awhile back with Pornsak Pichetshote talking about their Horizon Experiment project The Manchurian and Terry mentioned there was a new Adventureman arc coming out in early 2025. I jumped at the chance to lock him in again for a chat, and he's brought along long time co-creator and comics writer

The last time Ringo Nominated comics writer Erica Schutlz was on the show with me was to talk about her Marvel Comics project Hallow's Eve. That project made me a lifelong fan of her work and after that chat I knew I needed to reach out to her again for my Women In Comics Feature celebrating Women's History Month in March. Her recent Laura Kinney Wolverine book is one of my top favorites of the From The Ashes X-Office storylines and what better character to dive into the specifics of gender in
