Our second episode of the Social Distancing Era is now out, as Ian, Brent, Brandon and Kris are joined by longtime friend of the show, and artist extraordinaire, Jamal Igle! Jamal brings his wealth of knowledge on the comics industry to the table here, as the crew discuss the current state of things, including changes in distribution, the rise of digital, Lunar Distributors and UCS Distributors and how much of a challenge they actually are for Diamond, what readership numbers and sales revenue really looks like in today’s world, and a whole lot more. And oh, we also discuss pasta extraordinaire, and soon to be Batman Robert Pattinson, and his choice to not work out while quarantined. That too.
