A Week of Rad Interviews: Monday: Jeff Smith

May 20, 2008 on 2:50 am | In Interviews

Hey gang!

Welcome to Indie Jones’ week of rad interviews. See, of late Dave and I have been making a lot of phone calls to a bunch of comic creators and professionals that are, well, radical. You can scroll down below to see Dave’s chat with Eric Reynolds about Fantagraphics’ move to exclusivity in the direct market with Diamond, and over at the Big WU, you can see my interview with Bone and RASL creator Jeff Smith. about his art show at The Ohio State University’s Wexner Center.

And from here on out, each day of this week, I’ll post another link to a new rad interview with another face from the world of independent comics, including talks with:

Tuesday: A young creator behind one of the more buzzed about new titles of 2008.
Wednesday: A brand new face to the comics scene.
Thursday: A mainstream superhero artist getting accolades for his indie web comic.
Friday: An acclaimed cartoonist bringing back a fan favorite series in a new format.

If all goes to plan, I think by the end of the week we’ll all learn about some cool comic books, and I’ll possibly teach myself to post before 10:43 pm and wean myself off my overuse of the words “rad” and “radical” (ah who am I kidding…there’s no such thing as overuse of those words).
