Jojo's Bizarre Adventure with David Weinberger (Shonen Flop)

09/13/20 • 36 min

It's not often that I've seen a comic really follow along an entire family tree. Maybe a bit down the line but generation after generation after generation after..... well, you get the idea. Too bad I'm not a expert on the Jostar family legacy.

Good thing David Weinburger from Shonen Flop who thankfully is all over this one. Things will probably get a bit bizarre.

Learn such things as:

When do family naming conventions go too far?
Am I crazy for thinking the anime art was made using Jolly Ranchers?
Why am I forcing David to learn Japanese
And so much more!

You can find David on Twitter @davidmwein or check out Shonen Flop website and on Twitter @ShonenFlopCast.

Funko Pops with Adam Williamson (Boldly Viewing)

My wife says no Funko Pops for me, at least not if I'm paying for them. She lets me get video games and comics, so I guess I can't complain. But since I was shutdown before I could even express any kind of interest in getting some I never really looked into them.

That's where Adam Williamson comes in. I learn some about the history of these big headed little dudes, how he gets away with having so many, and just what I'm missing out on.

Learn such things as:

How do you get DC and Marvel to play nicely together?
Where did this whole thing start?
I'm saving how much money by not buying these!?
And so much more!

You can find Adam on Twitter @thepariaheffect or on his soon to be coming podcast Boldly Viewing.

215 Ink with Mike Perkins

It's about time I talk to someone on the publishing side of things. Sure, you can self publish and do everything yourself but wouldn't it be nice if there was someone who could help you out with that? Maybe someone like Mike Perkins from 215 Ink perhaps?

I sure hope so because that's who I got. Listen in as I learn from Mike some of what goes into getting a comic into my hands, and be sure to head over to the 215 Ink shop to pick up some of their stuff. Or maybe even look into submitting something you've been working on? I know I have some talented listeners here even if they don't believe me. And when you buy something, because I know you will, be sure to mention that you're friends with me.

Learn such things as:

How should you send a pitch to a publisher?
How bad can my art be when I send something in?
How can I help to get books into people's hands?
How can you read the first issue of Freaks and Gods for free? Hint, follow this link.
And so much more!

You can find Mike and 215 Ink over on Twitter @215Ink, Instagram @215Ink, Facebook @215Ink (are you sensing a theme here?) or the official 215 Ink website. You can also check out the 215 Ink Shop or their selection on Comixology.
