Ep. 280 - Super Group and Chronic (w/ Hunter van Lierop)
Writer Hunter van Lierop joins us to talk about his new comic on Kickstarter called Super Group, co-written by James Santana with art by Francesco Iaquinta and published by Philbo Publishing.
But first, does Cody think Hunter looks like a thumb? Is Hunter a big fan of The Evil Dead franchise? Is Hunter one of the few guests that have smoked with us on the pod? When did Hunter start listening to Comics and Chronic? Is Hunter deeply instrumental in the origin of Superguy? What the elevator pitch for Super Group? How did Hunter and James connect with artist Francesco Iaquinta? How long has the creative team been working on this comic? How is the world in Super Group different from the World of Nebulon? Were we surprised by the tone of this comic? How did the story feel grounded? Are Hunter and James drawing from their own lives to inform some of these characters and story? What dark secret does Cody give away for free? Does Damage Control influence this comic at all? How as the TV series Powerless? Does All-Star Superman inspire a scene in this comic? Is there a full arc planned? Are issues # 1 and 2 already completed? Were Hunter and James already picked up by a publisher? Is there any influence from Alex Ross’ Marvels? How was Hunter influenced Donny Cates’ Buzzkill and Tim Seeley’s Sundowners? How do James and Hunter write as a team? How did Kevin Smith provide inspiration for the comic? Are we all big fans of Murder Falcon by Daniel Warren Johnson? Was Batman: Hush one of Hunter and Cody’s first comic books? Is Hunter a big fan of Howard the Duck by Chip Zdarsky? What other comics has Hunter being reading lately? Will there ever be a Super Group/Superguy crossover? What happened to Diamond? What is this Kickstarter campaign offering? Will there be a new volume of Unknown Heroes?
