Fandom Planet 46: The Popeye Nexus

This episode features two very special interviews! First, Tim and Sax visit with Roger Langridge, writer for IDW’s new monthly Popeye comic. The book is not only an homage to the classic EC Segar strip of the 20’s and 30’s, but is so visually appealing that
it could be a lost relic of the era, time traveled to the 21st Century for our enjoyment. Ask for POPEYE from IDW at your LCS! In addition, the great Mike Baron joins us from him home thanks to the miracle of SKYPE to discuss the return of NEXUS, which he co-created
with the magnificent Steve Rude in 1981. NEXUS makes his return to comics THIS WEEK thanks to DARK HORSE. We talk with Mike about creator owned properties, the maturity of a storyteller and his story, and the evolution of NEXUS.
