Tales From The Trunk

For the final episode of our third season (wild, right?), I had the absolute delight of having Ivy Noelle Weir (@ivynoelle) on to record one of the most chaotic episodes, energy-wise, possibly ever in the history of this show! Ivy reads from The Archivist, the original title of the novel that became her and Steenz's graphic novel, Archival Quality, which leads us into a great conversation about how the transition from prose to comics came about, as well as Ivy's recently-released and forthcoming graphic adaptations of several works of classic children's literature.   Things we mention in this episode: R. K. Duncan  Magic: the Gathering  The Mütter Museum  The Clarion Workshop  The Death of Jane Lawrence, by Caitlin Starling "The Raven," by Edgar Allen Poe The First Unit  Eastern State Penitentiary  Gritty  The Phillie Phanatic  Pennsylvania politicians convicted of crimes  Steenz  Neil Gaiman  The Valkyries  Tini Howard  Vita Ayala  The Eisner Awards  Oni Press  Eat the Rich, by Sarah Gai
