Episode 157: Keithan Jones

Letting the kid in you thrive and flex their creativity through comics is a focal point for our newest conversation!

Keithan Jones is a San Diego, based comic book creator, artist, and entrepreneur who truly lives by the mantra "the kid in you never dies." As the founder of KID Comics, he turned a childhood passion into a professional career, most notably through his flagship sci, fi series, The Power Knights, a project he first conceived when he was just 11 years old. Beyond his own drawing board, Jones is a major advocate for representation and community building in the industry; he founded Black Comix Day, an annual San Diego event that spotlights Black creators and explores themes of Afrofuturism.

Keithan discusses shifting his art style in the 90's, keeping the characters he created alive for decades and the best James Bond!
