Interview with Comic Creator Evan Dorkin
Posted by Carlos Gabriel Ruiz on February 16th, 2008
Evan Dorkin is pretty much the man. Besides the fact that he is a multiple Eisner and Harvey Award winner, Evan has worked for every major and just about every minor comic publisher, weaving his mainstream work with the Big Three with his own indie comics published through Slave Labor Graphics. Here is a quick run through of his amazing work: Bill and Ted’s Excellent Comic, Milk and Cheese, Dork and World’s Funnest to name just a few.
Honestly, the guy and his wife and partner in crime Sarah Dyer are a one stop shop for comics and animation. Collectively they have written for Space Ghost: Coast to Coast, Superman Adventures, Shin-Chan and Yo Gabba Gabba.
I can’t tell you how excited I was to have the opportunity to interview one of my favorite comic writer/artists, not to mention a creator who has had a HUGE influence on my own work.
Check out the interview on Playback:STL.
And for more Evan Dorkin madness, check out his blog, Big Mouth Types Again, as well as his and Sarah’s website, House of Fun.
Enjoy.
