349. Spencer Ackerman on Waller vs Wildstorm

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!

344. Greg Rucka on unions, social media and advocacy

It’s another episode of The Mimi and Greg Show! It’s been a while since we’ve had a true Rucka-Rant…well, prepare yourself, Rucka goes all in during this episode.

288. Brian K. Vaughan on comics, writing and life

I’m trying very hard to contain my excitement in this episode. Brian K. Vaughan is one of my favorite comic writers and I was thrilled he agreed to come on the show. He was so gracious to spend over an hour talking comics, writing, and
collaboration.

I am so grateful to share these thoughtful conversations with humans that I admire so greatly. Brian was kind enough to entertain all of my questions about his childhood, the inspiration behind his stories, and his favorite books and shows.

277. Greg Rucka on Batman: Caped Crusader, social issues and cyber attacks

It’s another episode of The Mimi and Greg Show! In this episode, we go a little dark as the world around us is entrenched in so much controversy.

Greg expresses his thoughts on Russia and Ukraine, climate change, cyber-attacks, and the difficulties the LGBTQ+ community is facing right now. (especially in Florida)

258. Ed Brubaker on writing, comics, and tv shows

Ed Brubaker needs no introduction to comic book fans. Ed is one of the most acclaimed writers in comics, having won the Eisner and Harvey Awards for Best Writer five times, among others.

Ed shares his inspiration writing Pulp, Reckless, Friday, and Gotham Central. It was fascinating to hear his origin story on how he discovered comics and when his love for writing began.
