Is Love and Capes the Official Comic of Valentine's Day?

It's Valentine's Day, and I know what you want: More interviews with me. You can't get enough, can you, because I am apparently all over the place right now.

Over at Robot 6, which is an awesome site of awesomeness and you secretly hate yourself if you don't visit regularly, I'm interviewed by JK Parkin about Love and Capes. We cover things like the new Diamond minimums, Mark and Abby giving dating advice, my "process", such as it is, and more. Check it out here.

It's not a full interview or anything, but I am mentioned over at Whitney Matheson's online blog over at USA Today. Yes, that USA Today.

I'm also interviewed in something called "print" over at Comics Buyer's Guide. I did the interview a few weeks ago, so I honestly don't remember much of what I said. The CBG site is here, and the book is available at newsstands and such. Apparently the words "and the trade is published by the fine folks at IDW" didn't make the interview. So just print that sentence out, cut it out, and paste it in.

I was on the Dork Forest podcast, briefly. Hosted by Jackie Kashian, comedian (or is it comedienne, since I know it's not actress anymore... anyway, she's a funny person) has a podcast devoted to geekishness and such. Unfortunately, a technical glitch booted me from the call and we couldn't get back together. So, it's about ten minutes that ends as abruptly as No Country For Old Men.

John Siuntres, Chicago talk show host, interviewed me on the floor of the New York Comic-Con. John's always great to talk to, giving me the time of day long before I started Love and Capes. (I think it was 2:15pm, actually.) So, you can hear me babble about LNC here.

I've also mentioned the Raging Bullets podcast, I think, but let's mention it again given that this is a bag of listings. Sean's a great guy, and obviously a DC fan. It's great to chat with him.

Or Not

My travel schedule is getting in the way of me being on This Week in Media, unfortunately. Daisy was very gracious and hopefully I'll be on sometime soon. It's still a great show, though. Check it out.

All Access

The fine people over at the Comics Podcast Network have put up their Weekly Comics Spotlight #75. In it, they cover Love and Capes #9, and have some far-too-kind things to say about it. They particularly call out how accessible the book is to new readers. That's something I work very hard at and it's nice to see it appreciated.

Check out the podcast here.

It's Like Chocolate and Peanut Butter, I Think

If there's two things that go together, it's Love and Capes and the Punisher.

The guys at Comixtreme.com have done another podcast, this one focusing on Frank Castle and his war on crime. But, in their picks of the week is a book of my acquaintence, Love and Capes: Do You Want to Know a Secret? Blake says some very kind things about it, and I'm very appreciative of them.

What, you want to check out the podcast? Well, make with the clickety-click here.

Half Hour Wasted? I Think Not!

I did a few interviews at Wizard World Dallas, including this one for Half Hour Wasted episode #96. I appear near the end of the podcast, but the whole thing is worth your time. It's a live broadcast from various parts of Wizard World, and it does a pretty good job of capturing the flavor of the convention.

And when they mention that Cheetah Lady… sheesh. I saw her too and be glad that you didn't.

Like "American Idol" But Everyone Loses

Last night I was a guest on the ReadComics.org podcast. They had me on for the entire show, so it's almost an hour of Thom Zahler babbling. Actually, it went pretty well. I think I was occasionally amusing and... they even got me to sing a little. Damn this blog and my clever stories about The War of Joss Whedon's Musical Words that occured at Mid-Ohio-Con.

So, big thanks to Marty and Jason and Florence. I had a great time. Go check it out.

My Dulcet Tones, part 27 (or something like that).

I mentioned before that I recorded a podcast interview a couple of weeks ago. It was for the Comic Book Page, and the interview's posted. I'm up there with Rick Remender and Stephanie O'Donnell. If you're of a mind to do so, go ahead and check it out.

EDIT: I just listened to the podcast. I didn't hate the sound of my own voice, but I wouldn't think that my frothy Love and Capes would elicit an interview that used the words avuncular, paradigm, narrowcast, and archetype.

Ladies Love the Capes

Love and Capes has gotten another mention on a podcast. This time, it's the Two-in-One Showcase. I'm mentioned fifty some minutes into the 'cast, but give the whole thing a listen. There's some great discussions on Batman, who I think may have a movie coming out this week.

Podcaster Blake mentions how his girlfriend Erin, to whom he's introduced a bunch of comics, was the one who introduced him to LNC. Way to go Erin!

The Big Time

I'm a Trivia Question!

Over on the Comic Geek Speak podcast they do a regular "Stump the Rios" trivia question segment. They do three questions: DC, Marvel and an independent book.

On episode #458, the Indy Question is: In Thom Zahler's "Love and Capes", Amazonia writes a tell-all book. What's the title of the book?

Wow. That's just cool. I've never had anything I worked on hit big enough to qualify as a trivia question before. Thanks, guys!

My Dulcet Tones, Yet Again

I had the pleasure of doing an interview with JJ from Fist Full of Comics and Games. You can check it out here. Hopefully I don't sound like too much of a dolt.
