The crew chats with Adrian Tomine about his wonderful new book The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Cartoonist, plus finding a life-comics balance, and the late, great Richard Sala. We very much recommend The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Cartoonist: https://drawnandquarterly.com/loneliness-long-distance-cartoonist
It's been too long, and the new year has turned everyone's personalities in the Claptrap studios upside down! Thankfully we have Brit cartoonist, Nick Abadzis ' soothing voice to calm us down (and ease the ringing in our ears from Thien's selection of intro music. He edited the podcast this time!) Nick leads us in an engaging and thoughful conversation about his comic strip, Hugo Tate now collected by Blank Slate Books , thoughts on the rise in popularity of British comics in the U.S., his move to NY, TV sitcoms, and his exciting upcoming project that involves Orson Welles! Also new comics with Josh! What a difference a year makes! We've missed you and we're so happy we're together again! P.S. Errata Stigmata - Nick's book was released in May 2012, not 2013, HA! And the new season of the Comix Claptrap is season 6, not season 7, but who cares! Enjoy! or Download the MP3 file
