56: Lucy Bellwood – MakingComics.com Gutter Talk Podcast

— Made by Adam Greenfield

All aboard as the Gutter Talk podcast sets sail on a near two hour tour, a comic creating adventure. Join your captain and host, Adam, and his guest co-pilot, Lucy Bellwood, as they discuss everything from weird hometowns to successful Kickstarter projects to tools on her table.

Oh, and Lucy is a sailor so there are some choice drunken sailor-like words. If that makes you seasick and go overboard, don’t worry, we’ll throw you a life preserver. Or maybe we’ll just draw one around you. That sounds fun. Either way, you’ll be fine. Really.

55: Sam Wallace – MakingComics.com Gutter Talk Podcast

One of the great things about the Gutter Talk series is the wide variety of guest artists from not just the United States but all around the world, too. From Denmark to Australia to Chicago, Illinois, Adam has been fortunate to speak to the amazing array of artistic talent the world over. However, there’s always something special in face to face interviews and this interview with Sam Wallace in Adam’s apartment was no different.

Join Adam and Sam as they discuss everything from painting to scriptwriting to sports. Yeah, sports. Don’t worry, though. That part will be quick and painless. Promise.

Listen in as Colleen and Adam talk popularity of made up holidays, the joy of working with others, and working with and for people who appreciate not just the art but the artists, too.

49: Eric Shanower – MakingComics.com Gutter Talk Podcast

— Made by Adam Greenfield

As we enter December, the last month of Year One of not just the Gutter Talk podcast but the site as a whole, we pause a little to reflect on just how much we’ve accomplished in that time. But not for too long. Not only are we still not done, we’ve just barely scratched the surface. That trend continues with the first podcast of December, yet another amazing artist we can add to our guest list, Eric Shanower. Join Adam and Eric as they meet at an amazing San Diego restaurant, Alchemy, to discuss mostly comics but even a little personal history similarities.

47: Gavin Aung Than (Zen Pencils) – MakingComics.com Gutter Talk Podcast

— Made by Adam Greenfield

Each week our Gutter Talk podcasts open with a quote. Usually they are tied to the podcast somehow but other times we often wonder if Adam needs a white jacket with long sleeves and shiny buckles. However, nothing compares to what Gavin Aung Than does with quotes on his Zen Pencils comic, often going from playful to masterful in one panel. Adam sits down one on one with Gavin to discuss the drive behind Zen Pencils, and how hard work and a little luck have taken him a long way.
