WELCOME BACK TO IDEAS DON’T BLEED!
This week, we’re joined once again by Matthew Rosenberg (What’s the Furthest Place From Here? / DC VS. VAMPIRES) as we discuss his comics origins, growing up in a family full of writers, hosting the world’s okayest podcast, and more!
IDB is an all-new weekly podcast presented by Ashcan Press and featuring Matthew Rosenberg, the Supple Boiz, and wonderful guests from the world of comic books!
Our theme song is “Where’s the Poison” by Summer People.
Enjoy!
Yup. Part II of whatever this is. Enjoy.
Friend of the newsletter Charles Soule has something very cool going on. His excellent Image Comics series CURSE WORDS with the great Ryan Browne is an amazingly fun book. If you didn’t read it, you should definitely pick up the collected edition or treat yourself to the very pretty omnibus those boys made.
But if you did read it you know it had one big problem. It was missing a soundtrack. Well Charles has spent the last couple years tinkering away at a solution and it is finally here. The CURSE WORDS Concept Album is, yes, an album of music for and about the story of of CURSE WORDS. Charles wrote it and plays almost all of the music. I was lucky enough to get to hear it early and it is wild and fun and weird as hell and the kind of thing you want in your record (or comic) collection. It has a rock opera feel, sort of a musical, but also with some indie rock influences and some classic prog-rock parts. It’s pretty wild.
Well there’s good news! You can do just that now. Charles just launched a Kickstarter to get the sweet vinyl into your hands. So click that link, get yourself some wizard themed 12” goodness, and enjoy life, I guess.
That’s it for me.
Stay safe safe, take care of each other, wizards!
