HMSG Interview David M. Booher! - "The Black Phone"

This week we are thrilled to be interviewing a friend and fan of the show DAVID M. BOOHER!

Booher grew up in a small Ohio town reading Stephen King, watching The Goonies, eating Lucky Charms in front of He-Man, trading Garbage Pail Kids, playing Nintendo, and going outside. Channeling his love for all the best 1980’s sci-fi and fantasy, he has co-created and written comic series CANTO, POWERLESS, the LGBTQ-led KILLER QUEENS, ALIEN BOUNTY HUNTER, RAIN, ALL NEW FIREFLY, and the middle grade series TALES OF LAKE EERIE. He's also written several features. A lawyer by training, he lives in Los Angeles with his husband and the true masterminds behind their operation--their adopted greyhounds.

We discuss lots of Stephen King, adapting writing between mediums and cover THE BLACK PHONE (2022) starring Ethan Hawke & based on a story by one of Booher's collaborators - JOE HILL!

We hope you enjoy this fresh episode!
