James Asmus and Jim Festante talk Survival Street: The Radical Left

  • サマリー

  • When the first volume of Survival Street came out, I hadn't seen anything like it on shelves and it ended up immediately being one of my picks for the first annual Comic Book Yeti ICE or Indy Comics Excellence Awards in 2022. Who wouldn't love a satirical take on the current sad dominance of corporate culture in America and what a complete take over might look like in a not too distant dystopian future. Couple that with former children's show puppets being the aggressive catalyst to take on our corporate overloads, I was in love. Way back then writer James Asmus came on the show to talk about the project and how it was a mechanism to help overcome the anxiety from the pressures of modern society that we all feel. Now he's back with co-writer Jim Festante for another round promoting the second volume of Survival Street: The Radical Left from Dark Horse Comics. It gave me a rare opportunity to ask not about comic influences but comedic influences for the writing duo, how their partnership works, and even compare a few hopeful notes about where we're all headed. Make sure to visit their website to see what else they've been working on. From the publisher The political satire action-adventure hit series returns! After America is sold off to private companies, this A-B-C-Team of ex-entertainers rescues kids from cruel company towns. But Portland can’t hold everyone, and the cracks are about to break... Prepare for a radical departure in the series Library Journal called a “blisteringly satirical mash-up of Sesame Street and Robocop.” A candy coating of pop culture madness, humor, cartoonishly absurd hyper-violence, and just enough hope to keep holding on. Our episode sponsors unSeen/unHeard: Disability and Neurodivergence Comic Anthology on Kickstarter Don't miss this 64-page, 12 story anthology where at least 50% of each creative team is comprised of people who are neurodivergent or have a disability.
