MELTCAST 72: Felipe Smith, Our Man in Japan!
LISTEN NOW ON ITUNES! • LISTEN NOW IN YOUR BROWSER!
Live and direct from Tokyo, we bring you a rare interview with the cross-cultural manga sensation, Felipe Smith!
Back in the states for a brief respite from writing and drawing comics like the Meltcast-approved Peepo Choo, we have an extensive and energetic chat with Felipe about living in Japan, and working in the high-pressure manga industry. Also, Felipe gives us an on-the-ground view of Tokyo after the earthquake and tsunami.
Having Felipe surprise us for the show was an extreme delight. I miss the days when shooting the shit with Mr. Smith was a weekly occurrence…
My picks of the week are Freakangels (5 volumes free online, read from the beginning here) and Wildcats 3.0 Year Two
(Despite being a co-host of the show, I’m two days late reblogging this, which is why you all follow the Meltcast Tumblr directly, right? Right?)
