This week, I’m joined by creator Aaron Coney to dive into the origin and evolution of Phantom Force, the bold new indie comic redefining what a hero story can be. We talk about the inspiration behind the series, the dual-story structure, his collaboration with Blake Foster, and the world-building that sets this universe apart from anything that came before it.

Aaron shares how Phantom Force pays tribute to legacy while forging its own mature, cinematic path—and what it took to bring it all to life.

After the interview, Nick joins me for a brand-new In the Stacks with Nick, where he breaks down the book FantasticLand by Mike Bockoven. We also chat about upcoming events, a few big announcements for the show, and some behind-the-scenes updates you won’t want to miss.
