On today's episode I have comic book writers and filmmakers, Ben and Max Berkowitz! 

I first came across the Berkowtiz Brothers almost a year ago when I briefly met them at a signing for their comic book, "The Writer". I'll be honest, I wasn't at the signing for them, but for another comic and decided to pick theirs up while I was there. As soon as I dove in I was hooked!

I talked with Max and Ben about growing up on the East Coast, their first introduction to comic books, getting involved with entertainment, earliest influences and the first comics they bought, developing "The Writer" and bringing Josh Gadd on board, pitching to Dark Horse Comics, their social marketing company Not A Billionaire, and so much more!

A huge Thank You to Max and Ben for taking the time to join me on the show. I've been wanting to have them on the show for a while now and was thrilled we were able to make it happen. You can pick up the paperback of "The Writer" now, which includes the full story and all of the issues in one book simply by clicking on the links at www.onthemicpodcast.com Make sure to follow the Berkowitz Brothers on all of the links at www.onthemicpodcast.com as well. 

Thanks, Ben and Max!

Enjoy the episode!
