We got to sit down with Samuel Vera from Crazee Comics and the Catch Da Craze Podcast about his fascinating career in comics. Sam has been involved with indie comics for almost 20 years and was an early podcasting pioneer. He is currently running a Kickstarter for his fantasy epic Forbidden issue 2 and will be coming back to Kickstarter early next year to fund one of his other books, "There's an Alien in my Toilet".

Careful out there, Geeksploronauts, this is a hot one.
This time around the boys are joined by Dune turbo-fan George of The Movie Cellar podcast to talk about the best selling science fiction book of all time, and the movies that have come from it. What was good? What was bad? Were any of them actually good? What's in store for the future of the franchise? And just what kind of garbage research is Jon doing, bringing all sorts of false information about 437 books and whatnot?Watch out for sand worms and enjoy the show!
This week's promo is for the recently relaunched Assorted Goods. Dan dives into the topics affecting us all in an entertaining and informative take on journalist. Well...at least that used to be what it was like. It sounds like he is shaking things up and relaunching with a slightly different format this very month! I can't wait to see what he's done with the place.
Kickstarter for Space Oddities #2 launches on 11/4! So there is a good chance it is live right now. What are you waiting for? Go check it out!!

We are back with another peek behind the creative curtain and a project that we are both quite excited about. The Bardic Verses. We sit down with Pete Collins the Illustrator behind the comic and talk about his creative process, the challenges of drawing in multiple art styles within a single book, and of coarse about the book itself.
SUPPORT THE BARDIC VERSES HERE!
The Bardic Verses is an anthology-style graphic novel about a bard attempting to escape the long shadow of his warrior-family legacy. Our lead character Martiln Swordhand tells his tales in an old tavern and each tale is drawn in a different art style.
The Bardic Verses is first and foremost a love letter to traditional comics, tabletop RPGs, and sword and sorcery books. The stories within pay tribute to noir comics, Disney movies, Bill Watterson, Ryan Ottley, Rob Liefeld, Jack Kirby, and more!
Find more info and merch at BardicVerses.com

Do you crave a life of adventure? Do you long for high flying, gun shooting, sex having, cross doubling excitement and intrigue? Are you perfectly happy with your life, but enjoy watching all those things in the movies? Join the boys this time around as they have a general big picture chat about the legend that is MI6's own James Bond.
What makes James Bond who he is? What are all of the trappings they love, hate, or thought they loved but realized that might not be the case? And just what does a James Bond Martini taste like, anyway?
Put on your tux and prepare to find out.
This week's promo is for Book of Lies. They cover the ins and outs of scammers, liars, hucksters and frauds. You can marvel at the shenanigans and hopefully learn how not to get caught up in them.
