It was a great September on Off Panel, so I wanted to recap the podcasts that ran during that month for those that missed it.

Comics critic @oliversava.bsky.social joined the show for the eighth annual Superhero State of the Union, as we talked about where DC, Marvel, and others are right now.

David: Hey, do you wanna do a quick 5-minute sketch for my Stilt Man zine?
Me: Hell yeah! Let's livestream the drawing!
90 minutes later we have this! Listen to me endlessly ramble while drawing. It was a really fun conversation and good time. Thanks for letting me take your afternoon, David!

Today on SKTCHD, you can get taken inside STILT-ZINE as I interviewed artist @phillipsevy.bsky.social about process, art, and life while they put their Lady Stilt-Man piece for the zine's pinup gallery together on video.

It's a super fun chat, and a great look inside some of the art for the zine.

this was probably the deepest dive Nick & I have done on our work together. talking to David is a pleasure.
behind me, you can see a Dragotta drawing, an Emma Ríos print, a couple Hajime no Ippo replicas, and José Luis García-López's cover to Just Married #68

This week's episode of Off Panel was a ton of fun. I could talk comics + art with @iamdavidbrothers.com and Nick Dragotta all day. Plus, I love Good Devils, so I'm here to hype that up.

We do discuss a page from the book in it, so if you want to see us do that, the SKTCHD YouTube has what you need.
