• Si Spurrier Talks Sweaty Crimes, Strange Worlds, and The Voice Said Kill

  Writer Si Spurrier joins Let’s Talk Comics to talk about his new Image series The Voice Said Kill, a gritty, surreal crime story set deep in the Louisiana bayou. We get into the challenges of switching back and forth from work-for-hire to creator-owned, what it takes to build a story that sticks with readers, and how the right artist can completely change how a book feels. We also dig into Step by Bloody Step, how writing a silent comic pushed his process in new directions, and why he keeps chasing stories that feel a little risky. This one's a deep dive into trust, craft, and making comics that leave a mark.

• Chris Condon Talks News From The Fallout, Texas Crime & Zombies in Media

  Chris Condon joins the show to talk about his new Image Comics series News from the Fallout which is a black-and-white sci-fi horror epic set during a nuclear test gone wrong in 1960s Nevada. We dive deep into how the book evolved over a decade, why he wanted Jeffrey Alan Love on art, and what it means to build a comic that feels more like a surreal experience than a traditional genre piece. We also rewind to Chris’s early days breaking into comics with That Texas Blood, how he randomly found Jacob Phillips through a failed film pitch, and how their creative partnership helped shape one of the most compelling releases in years. From American myth to Night of the Living Dead, this one covers a lot. News from the Fallout hits shops June 25.

• Ryan Ottley Talks Battle Beast, Invincible, and What it Takes to Draw Beautiful Destruction in Comics

  In this episode, Ryan Ottley dives into the return of Battle Beast and what makes the character tick. Spoiler, it's mythic rage, tragic purpose, and a relentless hunger for meaning through combat. We talk about how the project came together, how it expands the Invincible universe into bold new genres, and why this might be Ottley’s most personal work yet. We also dig into his long-running friendship with Robert Kirkman, what it's like building a visual language for ultraviolence with emotional weight, and how deadlines, design shortcuts, and sheer storytelling instinct shaped his approach over the years. Plus: behind-the-scenes on those 1-in-2000 sketches, his time on Spider-Man, and how the Invincible TV series opened the floodgates. Whether you’re an old-school fan or new to the world of Ryan Ottley, this is a good one.
