This weeks episode is “Panda Packed” as we have a conversation with Panda Dog Press founder & creator of “Animal Control: Special Creatures Unit” Rob Anderson as we discuss the creation of his comic, storytelling, licensed comics, and his involvement in the “Comics Experience,” which is headed by IDW Senior Editor Andy Schmidt.

Then we go all out as we discuss the “Panda Force Summer Shorts” webcomics with “Panda Force” creator Sean Causley & the Glyph Nominated artist Julian Lytle, creator of “Ants.” Get familiar as we go all out and discuss their comics, webcomics, the end of Zuda, Doctor Who Anime, the fall of radio, Rick Ross, “The Expendettes” and a few comics that we think would fly off shelves but the big two would never publish.

Enjoy.
