| Rock & Tin | |
| When you started posting Rock & Tin online in 2013, you posted “With no schedule, but posting as often as possible.” How did that work out? | Joel |
| What was behind your choice of a simple method of visual storytelling for Rock & Tin? | Joel |
| (Reminds me a little of Captain Underpants by Dave Pilkey.) | |

| You opted for a black and white look for Rock and Tin. Was this an asthetic choice? | Matt |
| What’s next for Rock & Tin | |
| Congrats on the full funding (and stretch goal) for Rock & Tin! I thought we could start the show off with discussing; What happens now? | Joel |
| What sort of organization practices do you have for the fullfilment of the Kickstarter campaign? | Joel |
| The Rock & Tin campaign is for printing costs. Can you take us through how you (personally) “build” a graphic novel to this point. | Joel |
| Promoting your comic… | |
| How about a discussion about comic promotion, since it’s always a hot topic and things have really changed. It’s tougher than ever. | Tom |
| Upcoming Projects: | |
| Now that Rock and Tin is done, what’s next? | Matt |
| A little chat about my next project Pong the Mystic | Tom |
| Previous Projects | |

| In creating Rock and Tin, what were some things that you wanted to do differently from Marooned? | Matt |
| Here’s a wacky, Brian Dunaway-type question; what’s your stance on space mining? | Matt |
