Mike Norton Interview - Archie is Mr. Justice

It's Archie Andrews like you've never seen him before in Archie is Mr. Justice out November 20th and artist Mike Norton returns to the podcast and joins Jimmy to talk about this new 4-part limited series. Mike talks about what it's like playing in the Archie sandbox, getting to draw things that he hasn't seen in an Archie comic before, and the fun of Jughead's role in this series. Mike also talks about the kinds of comics that still excite him when he gets to work on them and gives some hints as to when fans can expect more Battlepug. This is a great conversation that probably would have gone longer if it wasn't for the fact that Jimmy came directly from the Randy J. Holland Inn of Court Chili Cook-off where he ate 15 cups of chili, one from each competitor. Mike is a fantastic artist and guest, so give this a listen and be sure to pick up a copy of Archie is Mr. Justice #1 from your LCS.

From the publisher BRAND NEW 4-PART ARCHIE PREMIUM EVENT LIMITED SERIES! Young Archie Andrews is your typical teenager, except for the fact that he has super powers and an undying urge to do what’s right, inspiring his super hero persona, “Mr. Justice.” Guiding Archie on the path of heroism is his best friend Jughead. The pair aim to right the wrongs of the greedy Hiram Lodge, who turned their tranquil hometown of Riverdale into a luxury city, forcing families out, and big businesses in. Can Archie’s brand of justice bring Riverdale into a new prosperous era, or will his need to do good ultimately be his downfall? This is truly a love letter to THE BEST of Archie, for fans of series like Whatever Happened to the Man or Tomorrow? and Invincible. PATREON We have a new Patreon, CryptidCreatorCornerpod.
