Show Notes: The whole CC2C crew returns this week to sit down and talk with Obsidian from the webcomic Commissioned Comic.

In true form, we shoot our question darts at the ever elusive Obsidan and he manages to dodge most of them through the first half of the show by distracting us with talk of poo tossing in South America, Politics and Taxes.

During, the second half of the show we manage to pin the little bugger down and get some much sought after answers to how he became a commissioned artist and how he survives on pennies a day. Plus, we ask him some of your questions posted on https://formspring.me/cc2c

So please join us on this very ‘special’ episode of Comics Coast To Coast and I’ll see you suckers on the other side.

Show Notes: This week John and Justin take a break and let me (Brian) host the show all by myself. What were they thinking!

I get a chance for a little one on one time with Brock Heasley from The Super Fogeys to talk about his new collaborative effort Monsterplex.

Monsterplex is written by Brock Heasley, Illustrated by David Schlotterback and colored by Michael DeVito.

The comic is about Corman Cinemas, where you see real monsters. Zombies. Wolf-men. Vampires. Bugs. Slimy…blob…things. Tearing your ticket. Making your popcorn. Sitting next to you in the theater for that “extra-added” scare. Authentic. Real.

Right now you can find Monsterplex at Zuda Comics.There you will see they are in a tight race for first place for this month’s comic contest winner. So be sure to head on over to Zuda and vote and favorite this comic if it fancies you…and I bet it will.

If you want to hear the whole Monsterplex crew talk more in depth about the comic and contest then be sure to check out Tall Tale Radio this next Monday. I’m sure Tom Racine will crawl into their heads and make a nest.

This week we have a chance to sit down with team Axe Cop and talk about it’s creation and where it’s going. Axe Cop, created and written by Malachai Niocolle and illustratred by Ethan Nicolle, is a webcomic about a cop who finds an axe at a fire and decides to fight crime in classic superhero fashion.

Just as interesting as the webcomic itself are the creators of this viral internet phenom. The writer, Malachai, is only 5 years old. His brother Ethan, the artist, is 29 years old. Despite such an age difference they are able to work as a team to create a powerful and amusing webcomic that has the creativity of a child with the artwork of a self taught cartoonist. In otherwords…pure magic.

At the top of the show we talk with Ethan Nicolle about Axe Cop’s inception to it’s subsequente rise to internet fame. He explains how the webcomic is brought to life with his lively writing sessions with his younger brother Malachai and a host of other things that shed light onto this mysterious thing called Axe Cop.

During the middle part of the show we get a chanece to talk to Malachai Nicolle (28:40) and get his take on this whole working with your family concept. I could try to explain what is said during this interview but you couldn’t possibly appreciate what it’s like for 3 grown men to have a comic discussion with a brilliant 5 year old without actually hearing it with your own ears.

So sit back…relax and get ready to delve into the minds of the Nicolle brothers.

In this episode Brian and John catch up with Frank Page of Bob The Squirrel and grill him about what he’s been up to lately.

Frank talks about his graduate school experience and shares a few projects with us such as his “Bob Talks To God“ animation and his wonderfully illustrated graphic novel “Better Man” based on his real life experience.

A lot of talk about the art schools by all.

Meanwhile, Justin takes some time off to free cows from the midwest.

A very special thanks to Frank for taking time out of his busy life to talk about the thing we all love. Webcomics.
