Join Don<\/strong> and Al<\/strong> as they explore the differences between kung fu heroes and western Superheroes. This leads to a discussion of\u00a0the long-form, episodic storytelling of western mainstream comics vs. the three-act oriented stories of eastern comics. And then onto familiar ground: sequels. Somehow, Don<\/strong> manages to sneak in some talk of one of his favorite comics, Jack Staff<\/a>. We also learn why Al<\/strong> is currently preferring trades and graphic novels to single issue comic books.
\nUp next… how science fiction has fueled the comic and movie industries for decades, and why comics are currently\u00a0benefiting from taking more chances. Al<\/strong> brings up a great comparison with the daredevil, chance-taking music industry of the 1950’s and 1960’s.
\nAnd the boys wrap it up by discussing… surprise, surprise… THE WALKING DEAD<\/a>.<\/p>\n
