This week I had the extreme pleasure of talking with legendary writer John Ostrander. John has written for countless titles across DC, Marvel, Dark Horse and others including Batman, X-men, Martian Manhunter, The Punisher, Hawkworld and much much more. He was a major player in the Star Wars EU comics having written for Republic and Legacy as well as being the creator of the modern day version of The Suicide Squad, his own title Grimjack and the character of Oracle. We discuss his work and career in comics and have a good time geek out session over the upcoming Suicide Squad film, DC's television universe and Doctor Who.

 

After years of chasing the mystical and illusive creature know as the artist Sean Seal, The Weapon is very proud to finally welcome one of the most talented guests to ever grace this podcast. Sean is a fine artist from the Michigan area and as it turns out, is a really nice guy as well. We discuss his life, art, painting, little zen trees, The Rot and Norah, his upcoming masterpiece with writer Kasey Pierce from Source Point Press.

To celebrate the release of Episode VII, The Force Awakens, I bring you a conversation with Tron a.k.a Juan Cholo, a.k.a Aaron of Solo's Hold, a custom lightsaber and prop fabricator with some serious skills. We chat about his art and our thoughts on The Force Awakens.

May the Force be with you!
