It was an honor to get to talk to, two wonderful artists whose works mean so much to me.

Jess, your joy here is infectious and beautiful.

You can tell Mike and Laura Allred are good people because all their great comics peers have done pinups for their books.

The effects tangent 18 minutes in was stellar!

This conversation was awesome!

This was a fantastic interview, I love how open Mike is to talk about pretty much anything ^^

One of the best parts of the library editions is to see new art from some of my favorite artists that have passed. I never thought I would see new art from Frazetta and or Cooke. Thank you so much for this gift. I wish more collections had this. Thank you both!

Sensational interview. It was so great seeing how visibly giddy Jess was the entire time. If Mike does come back to see this, what are some books that rank as your favourite? Are there any stories that you haven't read yet that you are looking forward to reading? Thanks again!

Great interview. I’ve loved his art for a long time and it’s awesome to see how kind and friendly such an incredible creator can be. Great job Jess.

Thanks for doing this interview!!

Allred, I'm curious about the whole 3 Nephites in Madman. I grew up in the church, but I was shocked to see that. This opened so many memories for me. Going to tie it up and why do this in Madman? Also, would love to give you a copy of my book. No strings, I just want to share. Thanks for everything.

Awesome interview! The conversation went on way longer than I expected.

This was very compelling viewing. Usually I only listen to the videos and look when it seems pertinent, however I was completely drawn in.

Mike, as someone that was also in sports early, did you ever think of doing a sports comic, something similar to Slam Dunk manga? Or a comic on your favorite athlete?

Q for Mike: When Mike Allred says he'd really like to do Conan, I immediately start thinking what that'd look like. First and foremost, I start to wonder if it'd be his signature style or whether he'd adapt maybe a more pulp-y style especially for Conan. Then I start thinking what the design would be. Would it be Buscema or Windsor-Smith or the movie or some depiction from the old book covers or something else or something his own.

This is video nerdvana incarnate!
