July 19, 2015 by Jerzy Drozd
Filed under Fabulous Secrets, Podcasts
I’m joined by Tory Woollcott and Zack Giallongo for a casual discussion on the story formulas of Edgar Rice Burroughs books and Murder, She Wrote episodes, fictional worlds we’d most like to move to, encounters with Fraggle Rock, and even some comics process talk.
We also issue a challenge–everyone draw your interpretation of Tory and Zack as Fraggles and tweet the drawings to them!

Fabulous Secrets 04 – Dialog Tangents, with Gregg Schigiel
June 13, 2014 by Jerzy Drozd
Filed under Fabulous Secrets, News, Podcasts
This time I talk with Gregg Schigiel, host of the Stuff Said podcast and artist on the Spongebob Comics series. Together we discuss lettering (or sound design) in comics, prepping for conventions, and a layered and elaborate metaphor for feeling like an outsider in your field.
There was a little bit of Skype buffering in this episode, but I think the discussion is fun despite it.

Fabulous Secrets 01 – I Could Be Sleeping Right Now
May 12, 2014 by Jerzy Drozd
Filed under Fabulous Secrets, Podcasts
I’ve decided to relaunch the Fabulous Secrets podcast! But instead of a show about teaching comics (a topic I cover thoroughly on the Lean Into Art Cast), the new edition of FS will feature casual conversations with cartoonists. Think of it as a less formal version of the Comics Are Great! show.
In this first episode I talk with Rachel Polk, my production assistant, about the different battles one faces between doing color flats, lettering, and coloring. We also talk a little bit about X-Men and why Rachel doesn’t “swoon.”
New episodes drop first on the Lean Into Art Patreon page. They’ll appear in this feed a few weeks after that.
