Off Panel #111: Nobedient with Si Spurrier

On this week’s episode of Off Panel, writer Si Spurrier joins the show to discuss his new Image Comics title, Angelic. Spurrier discusses what the book is all about, its lowkey all-ages nature, why the idea of genre bothers him, the book’s origins, working with Caspar Wijngaard, Jim Campbell and Emma Price, how he works on this book compared to other projects, the difficulties of the comic distribution model and ongoings, why his works are typically shorter runs, the language of Angelic, and more.

You can find Spurrier on Twitter, his website and his work in The Spire, Cry Havoc, and the upcoming Angelic at Image Comics.
