Great interview! Zub's work on Conan and his various Avengers series is top notch! He really knows how to use continuity in an interesting way.

[@larrytoons6220]

Woah. Jim Zub made Chris TAKE A SHOWER HOLY CRAP

[@Anders010]

His Conan book is legit good. Proof that modern writers can write pulp.

[@TastyMysteryMeat]

We are getting spoiled with all these interviews. So good.

[@TheMelMan]

57:47 Freaked me the hell out. Where did that come from? 😅

[@jearl75290]

Jim Zub has earned every inch of his success.

[@MachoCool558]

This is my favorite interview you have done. Awesome. Thank you both!

[@caligulapontifex5759]

You are on a Canadian streak recently. Mcfarlane, Cooke (review) and now Zub. I'm sensing a pattern. Would love to see you interview Byrne as the next Canadian guest. That would be epic.

[@comicswatching4851]

That Clapton bit had me on the floor 🤣🤣🤣 EXCELLENT interview!

[@GBlucher]

Great interview! Zub is one of the few guys I follow these days. He's great.

[@sopebarrofficial3557]

Being Canadian, it’s weird to hear how other people say Toronto. I’ve always pronounced it “Ter•aw•no” Excellent interview once again!

[@kevinbaird6705]

A guy from Toronto told me his pronunciation was once mistaken for "China".

[@peptobsmol]

Love the interviews so much

[@Jamerton1]

Loving all your new videos Chris! You're getting us through this quarentine just fine! Thanks for the great and interesting content!

[@falcoproudneck]

The most pleasant guy ever. I can hear Jim talking for hours.

[@themalcontent298]

I love the interviews.

[@mikepeterson3899]

Great interview. I really am enjoying Jim's Conan run. Into the Crucible was excellent ... gritty, bloody and weird. Perfect Conan stuff!

[@mariuszadamczyk7766]

A very inspiring interview that compelled me to grab the Conan comic books this weekend. 🧙‍♂️🗿🌋

[@benjaminloudly]

14:22 Easy to overlook what it takes to actually get an indy series published if you're having to depend on other creatives to help complete the project. So many things to have to go right even if you have some time and money to front.

[@rolandkatsuragi]

Amazing that an idea Jim had for a scene is now becoming a card game

[@TariOwei]

These interviews are great Chris. Keep up the good work Buddy.

[@kitfisto3300]

These interviews are informative and inspiring. Thanks Chris

[@Daniellevitch]

Jim, my kids and I love your and your wife’s Dungeons and Dragons Young Adventurer Series! So glad to hear that they will continue to come out. We would love to see a volume dedicated to Weapons and Equipment. What other topics do you plan on writing about for that series?

[@Dreqqus]

Love these interviews! I'd love to see you talk with Jed MacKay.

[@peterlinfield]

Great interview! I've always appreciated Jim Zub's candor about the market and publishing, he's made some great posts on reddit over the years, but I've regretfully never read any of his work. Wayward looks interesting and I've been jonesing for some Conan esque stories so I might check that out too. Good stuff!

[@marsupius]

Oh, hi! You caught me being a badass in my new animated intro.

[@totalcliche3066]

i loved his champions run especially the arc were they become dnd characters

[@lunarmodule6419]

Man I dont get tired of the amazing intro :-)

[@Swampthing86]

I love his take on Conan The Barbarian. I wish he kept going on the series. It's a shame the series ended on issue 25.

[@comicswatching4851]

PS his Serpent War story was excellent, really was loving all that mythology he was playing with, been really loving him on Conan (will be getting the card game), was really enjoying his Champions and of course adored his Avengers specials, No Surrender helped get me get into weekly books, love Jim Zub’s work and always dig an interview with him

Cool thumbnail, with the Dungeon Master from the cartoon. Looks like it wasn't a big deal in the USA, but it's a huge hit in Brazil, started around 1986 and was endlessly reprised for something like 10 years, barely leaving the grade. No exaggeration here: it was the cartoon of a whole generation. Renault used them in a car ad, you can find searching for "Caverna do Dragão" . Well, a lot of people went nuts thinking it was a movie about the cartoon. Most don't know the RPG. Since there is no final episode, there are just so many "theories" about the "truth": Uni was a Venger's plant, the kids died in the ride and were in hell.... you choose. I have 3 DVDs with all the episodes, watched the first ones with my daughter, she loved. The tradition goes on.

[@AL-ws5yi]

Wow, Todd McFarlane and Jim Zub? You’re in the big leagues now.

[@citizensguard3433]

Comic Tropes... Classic Pulp literature character... D&D.... All my current favorite things have combined to form this!! This can only mean one thing... 100% full Nerdage Capacity has been reached!! Now hitting critical mass!!! Awww yeaaa

[@unperson5713]

Conan is overpowered. Conan knows like 10 languages, rises to leadership position in multiple diverse cultures, women fall in love with him even if they hate him, he understands both tactics and strategy, if he was a D&D character he would have all 18s. On top of all that, he is blessed with unerring luck. Conan's friends call him Mary Sue.

[@C0deC0w]

Love Conan, but yeah it is his world that is interesting, not the character

[@kevincruz7958]

Conan: Serpent War was fun

[@tubespore]

Well this IS the sweet zone; comix, TTRPG, conan and DnD? wow.

[@johnm.withersiv4352]

It's a fun intersection of coolness. Skull Kickers makes it obvious Zub was going to play in all of those spaces.

[@kamtekar300]

I want Chris to eat progressively hotter peppers during all interviews. 🥵🌶

[@ianboreham454]

57:49 almost sent me deaf. Please take pity on people using earbuds. Great inteview, but that was awful.

[@falsenames]

Those were the few seconds of the interview I didn't enjoy. I wasn't listening on headphones, but the sudden change in volume did make me jump. Everything else was great though.

[@OomaGooma]

👍🏻

[@anti-duhringbattalion4801]

This is one of my favourite channels. I know Chris is not a pro but are any of Chris's comics available either online or in hard copy?
