Savage FINcast – FINI-SODE 1: Savage Dragon Legacy FCBD 2015 Impressions from a New Reader

Free Comic Book Day 2015 has come and gone, and in a slight change of pace Jim has taken the opportunity to sit down and chat with a new reader that has had very little prior exposure to Savage Dragon. Now with a copy of Savage Dragon Legacy in his hands he tells Jim what he thought of the experience. Together they talk about accessibility in comics and the importance of strong first impressions.

Savage FINcast – Episode 39: It’s a Home Dunk!

unnamedThere comes a day once a year where if you’re a good boy or girl you get showered with the gift of comic books. For Free! That’s right Free Comic Book Day has come and gone once again, and this year one of the most notable offerings was Image Comic’s SAVAGE DRAGON LEGACY. A full size NEW issue of Savage Dragon showcasing lead character Malcolm Dragon and the title’s latest status quo. So of course the crew of the Savage FINcast were chomping at the bit to get their hands on it. Craig, Jim, and Raven join together to dive into the near future of Savage Dragon, sharing their FCBD adventures (or… lack there of).
