Wayne’s Comics Podcast #659: Interviews with Mark Bertolini and Joe Harris

It’s time for another great Zoop.gg crowdfunding doubleheader week in Episode #659 as Wayne catches up with Mark Bertolini from the newly collected Breakneck, then Joe Harris returns to talk Great Pacific’s new hardcover edition!

Everything kicks off with my fun interview with Mark Bertolini, who is bringing back one of my personal favorites in Breakneck! Here’s how this book is described: “In a world where all supervillains have been wiped out, one final villain is on the run from the world’s collected heroes – but Ethan Shade is the crappiest villain left alive!” We talk about why this is a great time to revive this series, who the various characters are, and what else Mark is up to, including possibly another five issues of Breakneck! Be sure you back this crowdfunding project on zoop.gg before it concludes on Friday, September 27, so we can enjoy more of Mark’s excellent storytelling!

Then it all concludes with the return of Joe Harris to the podcast, who is collecting his classic tale in what he’s calling Great Pacific: The Completely Trashed Edition. Here’s the description: “Chas Worthington dreams of big things, solving bigger problems, and making his mark on the world. Only no one takes the twenty-one year-old heir to one of the biggest oil fortunes in history very seriously… that is, until he turns his back on his cushy life of wealth and prestige, and seeks to solve an environmental disaster twice the size of his native Texas known as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.” Joe discusses how this story came to be, who the characters are, and what else he has heading our way in the months ahead! Be sure to back this high-power Zoop.gg crowdfunder before it concludes on Friday, September 27, 2024.
