Rounding out the month, as we do, is another awesome Jason Brubaker re-issue. In the words of Michael Yakutis, yahoo!
Today’s episode is with Jake Parker, a fantastic artist and instructor, as well as the creator of InkTober, a challenge that tasks the artist to ink one drawing a day for the entire month of October. He is also the creator of a Kickstart project, Drawings, that blew his initial goal out of the water.
Later in the podcast Jason and Jake are joined by Daniel Lieske, also a very successful Kickstarter artist and creator of The Wormworld Saga.
To start off, join Adam and his co-host Michael Yakutis as they discuss some business and a few things they gleaned from this great re-issue episode.

We here at Making Comics Worldwide hope you had a great 2014 and we look forward to you joining us as we rush headlong into 2015. However, we still have one more piece of business to attend to, and that’s the final Gutter Talk episode of the year. It seems fitting that this episode is a re-issue of the one that started this whole thing, Jason Brubaker, and the second part of his conversation with artists Jeremy Barlow and Travis Hanson. If you missed the first half, click here. But first, Adam and Michael talk about holiday plans and other shop talk.
See you all next year! Ok, yeah, we know it’s next week. Just roll with it.

Another great re-issue this week with Jason Brubaker and his guests Jeremy Barlow and Travis Hanson. If you aren’t familiar with their work, on your next break from finishing that panel you’ve been avoiding, get familiar with it. Listen to this podcast, the first half of this conversation, while you’re researching and working.
Before the conversation begins, Adam is joined by co-host Michael Yakutis to discuss the NaNoWriMo challenge Adam is finishing up, a very cool Secret Santa event with Webcomic Underdogs, and some of the finer points of the podcast you’re about to listen to.

In the last chapter, I compared making a graphic novel to growing a tree. When growing a tree, there are things that can kill its growth, such as drought, floods, insect infestations, etc. Just like those things that can kill a tree, there are things that can stop the progress of your graphic novel. I like to call them roadblocks because they stand in the way of your progress, and sometimes you may not even realize it. In this chapter I’ll talk a bit about these roadblocks and potential ways to get around them. (more…)
Even though we on the inside have access to these Jason Brubaker podcasts from a few years ago, it’s still a surprise how jam-packed they are with pure gold. Trust us when we say it’s a struggle to not binge-listen to the entire library. Today’s episode is the first half of a sit down between three fantastic artists: Jason Brubaker, Doug TenNapel, and Ethan Nicolle. Before that, Adam and Patrick discuss a few of the more finer points.

Way to go! You’ve answered “yes” to the questions: Do you love comics? Do you love to draw? Do you love to tell stories? And do you love/really like/tolerate publishing? That’s a good first step, and you’ve convinced me of your passion to create a graphic novel. Now I’d like to talk to you about growing trees.
We recently posted the live hangout Jason Brubaker and Daniel Lieske did for their successful Kickstarter campaigns, Sithra and Volume 1 of the book edition of Wormworld Saga, respectively. It’s only coincidence that this week’s flashback is with Daniel Lieske and about the Wormworld Saga. However, we get a unique look into where they once were in the process, as this conversation happened a couple years back, and just how far they’ve come along. Nothing like a little recorded time travel to gain knowledge.
However, before we listen in on that conversation, Adam and Kevin first discuss a few tidbits about the Making Comics Worldwide universe, highlight a couple points they noticed from listening to the podcast, and at times border on actual gutter talk. Hey, it’s not our fault childish double meanings exist.

Even though every day is a day to make comics, we here at Making Comics Worldwide like Fridays best. Ok, maybe just Adam likes Fridays best. Still, if you like making comics AND listening to amazing artists on podcasts, then Fridays are definitely the best day of the week because that’s exactly what you get with Gutter Talk. Today, as we’ve been doing every last Friday of the month, we crank up the time traveling machine and dip back to a time when Jason Brubaker was the host and the guests were just as awesome as the ones we have now.
This episode is a sit-down with not just the creator of Twilight Monk, Trent Kaniuga, but also the mastermind behind Mouse Guard, David Petersen. We open, though, with a brief set-up chat with Adam and Marisa Brenizer to get things warmed up.
