  • Michael Grover Interview - Deeply Dave

    Michael Grover Interview - Deeply Dave
    Jul 30 2025
    Today’s episode is a first for the show—we’re joined by an Oscar nominee! Michael Grover, also a Harvey and Eisner Award nominee, sits down to talk about his genre-defying webcomic Deeply Dave, which is being collected into a vertical format graphic novel with Henry Holt. As a longtime fan, I was eager to learn how he’s adapting such a multimedia-rich experience—complete with GIFs, music, and animation—into print form. We also dive into his upcoming project Jake Spooky and the Wolves Within Him, where, you guessed it, werewolves take center stage. I can't help myself with the werewolf projects. Michael’s work pushes the boundaries of what comics can be, and if you’re interested in the future of storytelling, you won’t want to miss this conversation. 🔗 - Mike's website 🔗 - Deeply Dave website Deeply Dave From the publisher Immerse yourself in this unique reading experience, where you flip the pages up and read downward as you descend into the ocean's depths!Dave's mom is missing…and he’s going after her.She’s lost somewhere at the bottom of the ocean, stranded in the wreckage of her sunken spaceship. Only Dave can save her from the alien monsters and bizarre sea creatures that lurk in the depths.So Dave is going deeper...and deeper...and deeper...and deeper…and deeper…and deeper…and deeper...and deeper... Jake Spooky and the Wolves Within Him From the publisher Jake Spooky keeps puking up wolves…and he has no idea why. Meet Jake Spooky. He’s a shy, punk-rockin’ ghost who has some strange and mysterious powers bubbling just below the surface. Things can get a little bit…WEIRD in Jake’s world. Luckily, his roommates, the TV-headed Brand-o and Quincy the cat, help keep things under control—most of the time. One day, as a massive hurricane approaches, Jake can’t seem to stop puking up wolves, and their landlord has had enough! If any more wolves show up, the three friends are going to get kicked out of their house.Jake just wants to chill out and have band practice. But first, he will need to look inside himself and unravel the mystery of the wolves within.

  • David Andry Interview - Red Vector

    David Andry Interview - Red Vector
    Jul 29 2025
    David "DB" Andry returns to the podcast for a 4th time to discuss RED VECTOR coming out August 27th from Mad Cave Studios. (FOC is August 4th). The series is written by David and frequent collaborator Tim Daniel, illustrated by Chris Evenhuis, colored by Sjan Weijers, and lettered by friend of the podcast Buddy Beaudoin. David talks about how Red Vector is influenced by Star Wars, The Last Starfighter, and Enemy Mine, the importance of keeping the characters' motivations nebulous to keep the reader asking questions, his excitement at getting to work with Evenhuis and Weijers, and he answers the age-old question first posited by comic book philosopher Grant Stoye, "Where do your ideas come from?". David also talks about what readers can expect from the end of Crush Depth. It's always a good time chatting with David! 🔗 - Follow David on Bluesky⁠ Red Vector From the Publisher Cora Martinez has seen her fair share of conflict– as a Sonoran Desert Park Ranger, she straddles the line between sheltering desperate immigrants and steering others away from an uncertain fate. She longs for a place where disputes such as these no longer exist. But a clash far bigger than any on Earth is about to rip the heavens apart and crash land upon her doorstep with the arrival of two opposing combatants in an alien civil war through a rift in space! The earthbound space opera from the creators of Morning Star and Crush Depth begins! When the stars fell, war came to Earth. 🔗 - Order RED VECTOR Crush Depth From the publisher Two brothers locked in a sibling rivalry wrestle for command of a massive nuclear submarine, The Absolution, in a near future irrevocably altered by climate change. Chief Science Officer Liana Pearson finds herself not only caught between the Wilder brothers but drowning in her fear of the surface world. When something alien infiltrates The Absolution and upends the balance of power, Liana is left with only two deadly options–reaching the toxic surface world or steering the sub into the unforgiving abyss and crush depth—Breathe Deep! 🔗 - Order CRUSH DEPTH Follow Comic Book Yeti 🔗 Comic Book Yeti LinkTree: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/ComicBookYeti⁠⁠⁠⁠ For partnership and ad inquiries, please contact: thecomicsyeti@gmailcom Follow your hosts 🔗 Jimmy Gaspero: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bsky.app/profile/jimmygaspero.bsky.social⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🔗 Byron O’Neal: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bsky.app/profile/byrononeal.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ PATREON We have a new Patreon, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CryptidCreatorCornerpod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Matthew has a new graphic novel coming out from Comixology Originals with artist Davide Gianfelice called OUTER LANDS, which will be out August 26th.

If you're a newer creator or just about to take that leap into writing comics, you don't want to miss this episode.
