NOTE: We recorded this interview on May 22, 2020. Since then, we have been rocked by disturbing events in our country which have reminded us how crucial it is to tell our stories and to make our voices heard in whatever way we can, including comics, arts and writing. The Comix Claptrap supports Black Lives Matters, the protests, and ending police violence. https://blacklivesmatter.com/ -------------- Charles Forsman's Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/chuck Rina Ayuyang Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/rinayay Thien Pham Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/thiendog Josh Frankel Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/jfhimself The Claptrap crew chats with cartoonist Charles Forsman (THE END OF THE FXXXING WORLD, I AM NOT O... https://comixclaptrap.podomatic.com/entry/2020-05-24T11_09_14-07_00 https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/comixclaptrap/episodes/2020-05-24T11_09_14-07_00 Sun, 24 May 2020 18:09:14 +0000 2020-05-24 2020-05-24 https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/comixclaptrap/episodes/2020-05-24T11_09_14-07_00 The Comix Claptrap Podcast 3842 Hey, we're back!

Dylan passed away this weekend. There are not enough words in the world to say how much we will miss him and his enthusiasm for comics, creativity and life in general. Last year at APE, Thien moderated a panel about the Bay Area comics scene then and now. Dylan, along with Bay Area comic artists Susie Cagle, Ben Catmull, Andrew Farago and Hellen Jo talked about their beginnings and participation in the indie, small comics community. The interview gives just a tiny glimpse at how influential and important Dylan was to comics and the many lives he touched. Dylan would post about the Comix Claptrap on the Sparkplug Comics blog. He lovingly compare us to Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis and say that Thien's podcast personality resembled the likes of Henry Rollins, Bill O'Reilly and Alger Hiss. Against his better judgement, he would sometimes actually listen to the show, and say that his favorite parts were when Finn would cry or scream in the background. Dylan, we love you and we thank you for your heart, laughter and generosity. Dylan Williams was a talented comic artist, a passionate publisher and above all else our great d...
