Episode 25: Mark Shainblum

This episode features an innovator of Canadian comics and a man who tried to legitimize an art form in The Great White North.

Mark wrote adaptations of Michael Moorcock's classic Corum novels for First Comics in collaboration with Ken Hooper and Jill Thompson, and also wrote and co-created the critically acclaimed independent superhero series Northguard with Gabriel Morrissette. In a slightly different comics domain, Mark is well-known in Canada as the co-creator of Angloman, a political parody series first published by Signature Editions in two bestselling books. Angloman later appeared as a weekly comic strip in the Montreal Gazette.

Join in as André and Mark discuss inherited Trauma, growing up in the rich Jewish community of Montreal and his goals of being the Canadian Alan Moore!
