• W. Maxwell Prince tips his hand on ICE CREAM MAN "MORTAL COIL SHUFFLE" (with special guest Deniz Camp)

  W. Maxwell Prince (Ice Cream Man) and Deniz Camp (Assorted Crisis Events), two of the most inventive writers in comics today, sit down for a conversation about friendship, craft, and the chaos of creativity. It's NOT the epsiode of Let's Talk Comics you were expecting, but absolutely need to listen to.  They talk about breaking into comics, surviving rejection, writing through vulnerability, and how structure can become meaning in storytelling. Prince reveals how Ice Cream Man: The Mortal Coil evolved from a deck of cards into an existential experiment, while Camp digs into how Assorted Crisis Events turns superhero storytelling inside out. It's a rare, funny, and heartfelt talk about empathy, experimentation, and the joy of making weird comics for readers who want to feel something real.
