Podcast: Image Comics: The Big Dog - Jim Lee

Available from all your usual podcast providers, or listen here:  

It's all well and good talking about comics, but they are obviously a visual medium - pretty pictures!  Therefore, to accompany each episode, we also do a little blog post with some images and other extras to give you some context as to what on earth we're talking about!   

 

 

Mike and Lee's exploration of Image has reached Jim Lee - the business savvy, superstar of comic books. The ultimate triple threat, Jim achieved legend status at Marvel, Image and DC - but does his business acumen lack the romance of other Image founders?

GMCOGMD is an Icecream House Production, presented by Mike Bradbury and Lee Scott
