Today’s episode is a first for the show—we’re joined by an Oscar nominee! Michael Grover, also a Harvey and Eisner Award nominee, sits down to talk about his genre-defying webcomic Deeply Dave, which is being collected into a vertical format graphic novel with Henry Holt.
As a longtime fan, I was eager to learn how he’s adapting such a multimedia-rich experience—complete with GIFs, music, and animation—into print form. We also dive into his upcoming project Jake Spooky and the Wolves Within Him, where, you guessed it, werewolves take center stage. I can't help myself with the werewolf projects.
Michael’s work pushes the boundaries of what comics can be, and if you’re interested in the future of storytelling, you won’t want to miss this conversation.
