EP163 | Killing the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (w/ Ben Bishop)
The great Ghanaian artist C.A. Wisely
Were you like us as a kid, getting up early every Saturday to catch the new episode of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? Did you know that the turtles story started as a comic book? Originally created by Kevin Eastman & Peter Laird, the TMNT books were drastically different from the Saturday morning TV series. Each beautifully drawn page was loaded with blood, violence, cursing and adult themes. Fast forward, past multiple TV series, a string of highly successful blockbuster films and hundreds of comics, the Turtles have come full circle with an idea conceived by Eastman & Laird back in the beginning of it all. THE LAST RONIN! One of the most exciting comics being published these days, loaded with nostalgia, vengeance fueled violence and lots and lots of death. On today's episode, we talk with one of the artists of the new series, Ben Bishop, and oh boy, do we get nerdy about comic books. We draw the parallels between telling stories in panels and telling stories on screen. We talk about how Ben first approached Marvel with illustrations at 11 years old, and what it's been like working for the artists that inspired him as a kid. As the IN LOVE WITH THE PROCESS PODCAST starts to wrap up an amazing year of podcast episodes, this one will be known as one of the best of 2021! Don't miss this epic conversation between Mike Pecci & Ben Bishop!
