Cryptid Creator Corner from Comic Book Yeti

It's always a good chat when returning guest Amit Tishler drops in to chat with me and today he's brought along his co-writer and friend Elliot Sperl to talk about their new Mad Cave Studios mini-series The Last Wardens. I got a sneek peek at this book, and it is wild. Set in the 1970s, what starts out more as a sad slice of life family drama quickly ratchets up into bloody grindho

While I’m spending some family time in Disney World, Byron is making sure you don’t have to wait for new episodes of the Cryptid Creator Corner, and Great Scott this is a Dan(g) good episode with Dan Panosian and Scott Snyder.

I hate it but I just don't allow myself to face the fact that I hold it in contempt because it keeps on turning out to be the only place to go." Maybe Orson Welles wasn't talking about Twitter, I'm not sure, but you know who could tell me what Orson Welles was talking about, today's guest: Milton Laws

I'm chatting with comics creator Boum on the show today. She's a new guest with an amazing new graphic novel, The Jellyfish, dropping with Montreal based Pow Pow Press. As a disabled person myself, I'm trying to get more creators with disabilities on the show and this book absolutely blew me away. It was my first 10/10 reading experience in 2024. The story follows Odette, a young w

I really enjoy interviewing creators for the podcast, but I also love listening to other interview podcasts as well, and I'm hard-pressed to think of anyone that does it better than David Harper. David is the guy behind SKTCHD and Off Panel: A Comics Interview Podcast. David brings his natural curiosity to interviewing and it makes for some of the most thoughtful, interesting, and

The third time is certainly the charm as Rich Douek returns to CBY's Crytpid Creator Corner to chat about Heartpiercer from Dark Horse Comics.

Rich and I chat about the origins of this story, work

It is a rare treat because both hosts are on the show today to chat with fellow Yeti and comics writer Wells Thompson about his new NSFW project SMUT funding on Kickstarter.

Comics creator and Eisner Winning illustrator Michael Avon Oeming (Blue Book, The Mice Templar, Powers) joins me on the show today to discuss his new Dark Horse Comics project, William of Newbury. I've been a fan of his work for years now and following his process videos on TikTok inspired me to take this interview in that direction. We talk about how he pulled from English history
