MONSTER MAGNET Frontman Talks Comic Books; Audio Available

July 30, 2007

MONSTER MAGNET frontman and comics enthusiast Dave Wyndorf was the featured guest on the Around Comics podcast #116. A description of the show reads as follows: "We were so shocked to find out that this rock-n-roller was not only a huge comic fan, but also a listener of the show, that we had to have him on. What starts as a discussion about the influences and relationships between comics and music quickly turns into general comics talk. Listen in to hear about the evolution of comics through the years, the business of comics and music, lots of Jack Kirby love and why we love the term Cartoonist. Tom, Sal, Chris and Skottie answer listener e-mail and talk about their abs."
