This week, Mike sat down with author & journalist Ethan Sacks to talk about his new indie mini-series; A Haunted Girl, his Star Wars comics, including Bounty Hunters and more!
In more detail, the duo start with Ethan’s writing style and how he has written comics, how his journey from journalist to comic book writer has changed his involvement in the fandom, Ethan’s relationship with his dad and Star Wars, Ethan’s creative process, how Ethan has processed trauma through writing, Ethan’s collaborations with Paolo Villanelli, plus 4-LOM & Zuckuss. Ethan then talks in-depth about his comic A Haunted Girl along with his journey with his daughter through some difficult times. The conversation draws to a close after talking about Ethan’s COVID and Climate Crisis Chronicles - this conversation is perfect for Star Wars & indie comic fans, aspiring writers or those suffering with mental health issues.

In the previous episode of GCC, Dave, Maff, Megan & Mike go back to 1999 with the first of the controversial Prequel Trilogy; The Phantom Menace! The episode serves as a soft lead into the Clone Wars animated series, which Dave, Maff & Mike will be delving into in 2024 – Maff hasn’t watched the prequel trilogy in many years, while Mike is a staunch defender, so tune in to hear; is Phantom Menace actually any good?
