Collectors and dealers will gather in Manchester this weekend for a comic book convention (or "Comicon"). We'll talk with some local artists and publishers about the culture and business behind the art form. Major motion pictures have helped graphic novels gain main stream attention and respect lately. But still, it may be harder than ever for smaller publications to get noticed.
Shay's guests are:
James Sturm, Cartoonist and Director of the Center for Cartoon Studies
Matt Talbot, Co-Writer and Inker for the comic book Johnny Raygun
Ralph DiBernardo, Publisher and Owner of Jetpack Press
The song at the end of the show is "The Comeback" by the Swedish band the Shout Out Louds. It's off their album Howl Howl Gaff Gaff
