Episode 1459 - Thought Bubble Festival: Kieron Gillen!

11/15/23 • 47 min

Jimmy did several interviews before Thought Bubble Festival that he had planned on doing there. This way, his interview schedule wouldn't be too busy at the show. He met up with his friend Kieron Gillen in London to have lunch and interview. A fun and laid-back chat about his run on his many X-Men books and where things are heading post-Krakoan age, Doctor Aphra, DIE, RPGs, advice for people who want to do comics and more. An adorable pub doggie with a plastic cone on would visit us on occasion to be part of the interview as well. Thanks to Kieron for lunch and the interview!

Episode 1458 - Thought Bubble Festival Recap! Becky Cloonan/Tula Lotay!

Jimmy gives his recap and thoughts on Thought Bubble Festival and his trip over to the UK. A great time as usual! The festival is a wonderful gathering of amazing cartoonists and creators. Just a super positive and supportive atmosphere. In the recap, he gives the scoop on it all from the set up to the crowds to the location and more. Yeah, he LOVED it! Jimmy did 13 interviews and you'll hear the one with Becky Cloonan and Tula Lotay. They talk about their upcoming DSTLRY collaboration SOMNA (out next week!) and how the short story in the recent DSTLRY anthology served as the lead in to it. They also talked about how each other is an inspiration and the joys of working with each other. Love was all over in this interview!

Episode 1460 - Thought Bubble Festival: Rachael Smith/Arielle Jovellanos!

Jimmy did several interviews before Thought Bubble Festival that he had planned on doing there. This way, his interview schedule wouldn't be too busy at the show. He met up with his friend Rachael Smith in Manchester to interview and hang. A chill and always hilarious time at her home. We talked her recent NAP COMIX, adorable new baby Henry (the star of said comic), THE QUEEN'S FAVORITE WITCH, a possible space opera in the works (wait...WHAT?!!) and more! Thx to Rachael for having Jimmy stay over and the interview!

Jimmy also did a follow up with Arielle Jovellanos at Thought Bubble Festival. He had picked up her self-published comic JUST A SPELL at NYCC last month on the last day so didn't have a chance to read it before their interview there. (They talked about lots of other things so do go check that out). Now read, they talked about the original work, the world building, music involved and more.
