After a few weeks of con fever, artist extraordinaire Alfie Gallagher joins Vince Hunt, Dan Butcher and Tony Esmond to talk about his three-issue series Charlatan Tales, his work and influences and the exciting projects he’s got coming next.
The gang also discuss events using the term Comic Con that have no comics, have a nice little reminisce about London Super Comic Con (including Dan and Tony’s Mike Zeck moment) and so much more!
