Comics and music share a lot of affinities-both depend heavily on rhythm and intervals,and many cartoonists are also musicians-and cartoonist Ben Towle and blogger Craig Fischer have organized a diverse smorgasbord of a panel to explore these affinities. Ben will discuss the many ways cartoonists represent music visually, and will chair a wide-ranging panel on comics and music with Peter Bagge (Hate, Yeah!), Ed Piskor (Hip Hop Family Tree), Andrew Robinson and Vivek J Tiwary (The Fifth Beatle). Craig will talk about the work of Marc Weidenbaum, an editor, teacher, and musician who's been combining comics and music in his creative projects for over two decades. And Charlotte, NC avant-duo Ghost Trees (Brent Bagwell on saxophone, Seth Nanaa on drums) will participate in two live comics/music performances, including a soundtrack for Joe Lambert's "Turtle Keep it Steady," a rock-n-roll retelling of the Tortoise-Hare fable!
Is there anything better than a painted comic cover? I suggest, no—no, there is not. But, plan to join moderator Shawn Daughhetee from the Dollar Bin as she talks oil, canvas and brushes with Chrissie Zullo, Earl Norem, Dave Cooper, Phil Noto and Jim Silke.
Runtime 46 minutes 48 seconds
The Beatles never got back together. Harlan Ellson never released Final Dangerous Visions, Harry Houdini never really came back from the dead, but sometimes seemingly impossible dreams do come true—Neal Adams is returning to the X-Men!! Join Mr. Adams and scribe Christos Gage for an exciting preview of First X-Men. And just wait ‘til you meet our Sentinel Jason Wheatley.

So what if the NPR Car Talk guys are calling it quits??? To fill the void, we have Mike Mignola sitting down to talk with Jim Rugg for a scintillating episode of must-hear podcast Tell Me Something I Don’t Know. Since Hellboy can’t say it, I will—“Crap!”
This and other podcast can be found on there site. I recommend checking it out.
Every week the Dollar Bin Comics Podcast brings you insightful podcasts and articles about comics. No, seriously, they do. I really mean it.
Join Andrew Aydin (March/Run), Jonathan Marks Barravechia (Bear Pirate Viking Queen), Matthew K Manning (Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures, Marvel Action: Avengers), Laura Martin (colorist, if you are a fan of the Dollar Bin podcast, you know who she is), and Chris Sparks (Team Cul De Sac) for insights and updates as we launch the kickstarter campaign to fund this momentous work and begin the work of giving voice to Appalachia through comics.
We’re back and we are kicking things off with Shawn talking about her trip to the annual Borderlands Comics and Games sale. She talks hanging out with J Chris Campbell and picking up a few comics along the way.
Since the day we met Jim Rugg at Heroes Aren't Hard to Find as part of the Afrodesiac tour, he has been a favorite of the Dollar Bin. It is funny to realize that over the last 8 or so years, this is the first Dollar Bin vs Jim Rugg interview.
