The underground comics scene is stronger than ever, but what kind of comic reader checks out what happens beyond the panel borders of their 'regular' titles? The ACP are joined by the gang at Black Ink Comix and Junked to talk about that, getting your comics into different venues and so much more. It's a fascinating look at the art of just making comics and putting them out into the world. Plus great indie books to check out, chat about the preservation of classic cartooning and even more small press chat.

Writing comics is one thing, but editing them, running a kickstarter AND a weekly substance is a lot of work, but Sarah Cooke (No Spell Last Forever) makes it look easy! This week she joins the gang to talk about her journey into the world of comics creation, creativity, working on IP characters and the similarity between comics and poetry. Theres also great indie books of all genres and topics and plenty more to check out. Oh, and there's some VERY immature humour at the start, so be warned. :)
