Episode 217: Isolation with Doug Bratton

Leave a comment

We’re back with another interview this week! This time, Ian catches up with Doug Bratton, a creator who first met Ian back in 2006, and was even on an episode of Geekspeak back then (if you listen back, apologies for the primordial sound quality). These days, Doug is here to promote a collection of the first four issues of his mystery/horror book Isolation, which is currently available on Kickstarter. They also discuss Doug’s one-panel strip work on Pop Colture Shock Therapy, The Kubert School and taking classes with Joe Kubert himself, turning a novel idea into a comic book idea, what it takes to self-publish a comic book, and plenty more.

You can follow Doug’s work over at Instagram, and Facebook, and you can reach out to him there to get further information on where you can find Isolation after the Kickstarter has concluded. You have until Friday, June 7th at 8am ET to pledge to it!
