TW 5: Talking Wicked with Alex Murd

This week on Talking Wicked, I chat with the person most responsible for the visual feel of the show and The Librarian, artist Alex Murd of Murd Comics.

We talk about how Alex finds solace in art and our long collaboration on The Wicked Library, The Lift, and The Private Collector. We also do a deep dive into some of the artwork for both shows, the inspiration for the art, and talk about growing as an artist and the importance of having a creative outlet. We finish with a discussion about Alex's other work and her excellent original character, Jasper.

Get a rare look behind the scenes to learn a bit about how the art helped define the show and our Librarian. And, check out the Murd Comics website to see some great art!
