Marc Laming, our 'celebrity friend' and one of the superstar artists working on the new Star Wars: The Force Awakens adaption, pops on to talk about what its like working with such a huge franchise, drawing Harrison Ford, how the creative teams work to make a comic adaption a visually different experience and more. Theres also talk of Marc's experience working on Planet of the Apes, finding comics in your newsagent when you were young, the joy of European comics and SO much more. Also everyone misses Dan, Marc loses the will to live drawing rocks, Vince tries to avoid any questions about his personal life and Tony announces he has a beaver costume. Make of that what you will.
PLUS theres also an interview with the writer of Boom Studios 'Turncoat' Alex Paknadel and creator of 'Hel Hunter' Dan Charnley from Lancaster Comics Day!
