Episode 551 - Capes... What Are They Good For?

Capes go under the microscope this week, and what a legacy we talk about, as Gary Seaward joins us to talk about his subversive superhero series 'Legacy: Idols and Bones'. From playing with stereotype to writing stories that have consequences, the conversation goes everywhere... as it should when those involved are lifelong superhero fans. Theres also fantastic comic recommendations, tons of small press comic chatter and a talk about Artist Edition books that both provoke emotion and inspiration. Great stuff to check out: Legacy: Idols and Bones, Gary Seaward, Secret Identity Comics, Clear Run 3, Art Nine Two, Yo! Comics, The Press Guardian 3, Green Archer Comics, The Boys, Jason Pearsons Body Bags - Artist Edition, 12 Gauge Comics, Crazy For you, Steve Lafler, Paul Therioux, Was That Normal?, Alex Potts, Predator/TMNT, Zak Cahill, Life Drawing, Jaime Hernadez, It Killed Everyone But Me, Mad Cave Comics
