This week in Episode #678, the guest is writer Alisa Kwitney from HOWL, published by AHOY Comics!

The first issue of HOWL is now available at local comics shops, with the second arriving soon! HOWL is described this way: “In the late 1950s in Greenwich Village, alien spores are the last thing on 23-year-old beatnik and proto-feminist Ziva Rodblatt’s mind — she’s too busy trying to keep her mother from discovering that she is living out of wedlock with her boyfriend. But when said boyfriend falls under the sway of celebrity therapist Myrtle Morel, she begins to grow suspicious.” We discuss how this mini-series came to be, who the various characters are, and what else Alisa has coming our way in the months ahead!

Episode #677: Interview with Paul Tobin and PJ Holden – January 26, 2025

Episode #677 features the return of two great comics creators—PJ Holden and Paul Tobin, who are bringing us Dark Pyramid from Mad Cave Studios.

Both creators are returning to the podcast, and they are working together to bring a gripping new series of ancient conspiracies, monstrous horrors, and the ultimate fight for truth. Their electrifying five-issue mini-series will begin in February, and it is described this way: “Hooky Hidalgo, adventurist and popular live streamer, has gone missing while climbing Mt. Denali in Alaska! When his girlfriend, Becca, arrives at the base of the mountain to retrace his steps, she soon discovers something beyond the dreamy and impressive landscape. There’s a conspiracy deep within the heart of Denali itself—a dark pyramid, silent, waiting.  Becca—and the scores of Hooky fans determined to either find him or find some fun—will face death, avalanches…. and monsters to find the truth.” We talk about how this book came to be, who the characters are, and what we can expect from both Paul and PJ in the coming months!
