Spencer Ackerman is back on the show discussing his comic book debut: Waller vs Wildstorm. As a fan of comics, it was fun to see how Spencer brings his journalism expertise to the comics medium.
Spencer shares his thoughts on the comics creative process and collaboration. It was also fascinating to hear his take on writing his first comic book as a musician. We discuss the pacing of the pages in reference to music and he breaks down the rhythm of the book like drum rudiments. So much fun!
I am thrilled to have repeat guests that I can now friends. Spencer is so much fun to talk to and I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.
