I am once again joined by Damian and Brian from Kryptographik in taking a look at Black Summer issues 2 and 3, created by Warren Ellis and Juan Jose Ryp, published by Avatar Press. We also talk about collecting multiple covers, separating cinematic storytelling from movie pitch comics, realistic body types in comics and why big breasted women aren’t necessarily unbelievable.

Did anybody else read this miniseries from Avatar Press? I did and I talk about it on the latest episode of Comic Book Noise with Brian Matus and Damian Smith from the Kryptographik podcast. At least we tried to talk about the series. After 90 minutes we only covered the first two issues. But in the meantime, we touched upon politics, the legalization of narcotics and the correlation with raising children, the mechanics of language, global economies, religious imagery in scenes of mayhem and of course puppies and children.

Actually the part about puppies and children was left on the cutting room floor but the rest is there.
