We cover the intersection of horror and pornography, editing for the first time, why they asked who they asked to be in the book, collaboration, aiming for the stars, children in peril, Kramer’s Ergot 8, respecting your readers, Goth music & capturing a mood via curation, and we dive deep into both Julia and Sean’s contributions to the book, as well as wax fannish over several of the contributors to Mirror Mirror 2. \u00a0It’s a really fun talk, and we think you’ll enjoy it!<\/p>\n

BUT FIRST:<\/strong>\u00a0Mike and Zack talk comic book layouts! Do you lay out your comics before you draw them? Maybe you should! Maybe not! Mike hasn’t ever really gone in for it, and Zack has often found himself confounded by the magnitude of work layouts can be, since he tends to fully lay out his comics before putting ink to page. In many ways, it’s the real writing of the book from moment to moment, and we get deep into the process and theory of it. We go back and forth over the pros and cons of doing layouts, and Mike vows to do full layouts for his next major work!<\/p>\n

PS:<\/strong> Mike has a new Patreon<\/a>! Zack has an old one<\/a>!<\/p>\n
