“Hereville” reviewed on ReadComics Podcast

Posted by Ampersand | July 25th, 2008

hereville_in_print.jpgThe current ReadComics Podcast includes a two minute discussion of my comic book “Hereville,” which they liked (phew!). The “Hereville” talk begins at about 42:15. This is, as far as I know, the first time “Hereville” has been mentioned on a Podcast.

One host, Marty, bought a copy of “Hereville” with a sketch on the title page. I’m pretty sure this is the sketch he bought; I’m glad to hear he liked it. (You can see a whole bunch of title page sketched I’ve done here.)

One of the hosts, Florence, mentions that she read “Hereville” (as well as Castle Waiting and The Underburbs) as an antidote for her depression after reading a ton of Warren Ellis and Walking Dead comics, which really amused me.

I haven’t heard this podcast before, but I enjoyed it, largely because they discussed several comics that I’ve actually read and heard of, so this doesn’t make me feel quite as outdated as some other comics podcasts I’ve heard. To make sure that I did feel old, though, the hosts spent a while discussing if Frank Miller drew “Daredevil” and “The Dark Knight,” before concluding that he didn’t.
