I just found an archive of some very cool audio interviews at Comic Geek Speak -

check out the full list here

Here are some personal picks from the list (though I have yet to listen to all of these):

• Mark Bagley - had a damn fine run on Amazing Spiderman in the 90's

• Gene Colan - a Marvel legend

• Joe Kubert - another comic art legend. Quite possibly best known for Sgt. Rock

• Erik Larsen - for me, Erik Larsen just might be the definitive Spider-man artist. It was during his run on Amazing that I really started paying attention to comics.

• Stan Lee - The Man, himself. 'Nuff said.

• Paul Pope - see my previous post for more Paul Pope links

• Dave Sim interview #1
• Dave Sim interview #2

About a year or two ago I read Cerebus straight through in its entirety. I think you should too.

• Walt Simonson - The Mighty Thor
