This week, Vince and I are joined by a Kienan Lafferty for a fantastic interview. Kienan is the independent creator behind the online comic Emma. You will be hard pressed to find a creator as enthusiastic about their work as Lafferty. He left his dream job at Riot Games in order to pursue this goal of creating comic books, and the passion shows in the calibre of his work.

Both Vince and I respect the subtle, yet very intelligent, story behind Emma. Kienan puts as much attention into the panel layout of a single page than most creators do an entire issue.

Also on the show, a handful of other creator owned comic books reviewed by Vince in What We’re Reading, and what’s this? I enjoyed a series about Cyclops? Head for the bunkers, it’s most certainly the apocalypse.

Oh, and Rat Queens #6… because reasons.
