S4 Ep 385Brian Cochran talks "Within" Now Available on Kickstarter!

"After a night of seemingly endless horror, Wayne Suffolk found a loophole to cheat his way out of a demonic bargain—but no one outsmarts the Devil for long. Now his daughter carries the redirected debt: an unborn entity that both Heaven and Hell claim is inhuman. ​Hunted by supernatural legions she cannot fathom and pursued by men she cannot trust, she is driven into the shadows. While the world sees her unborn as an unholy monster, she sees only hope—her reason to keep fighting in a life filled with loss. She is determined to prove that a mother’s love can rewrite destiny, but to survive, she must seek protection from a transient who begrudgingly aided her father. A man suffering from his own demonic affliction...one that might kill her as the birth nears.

S4 Ep 38320 Years in Hollywood Now They're Launching Their Own Dark Graphic Novel

Jack Kasprzak and Slavik IA are film industry veterans, working on some of the biggest films over the course of 20 years. Their work includes: X-Men: Days of Future Past, Spider Man: No Way Home, Free Guy, Black Panther 2, Morbius, Dr.Strange, Electric State, Tron 2, Transformers 2, Pirates of the Caribbean 3, The Twits, Kung-Fu Panda & many more. Los Angeles, CA — December 1, 2025 - The Daily Mobster LLC announces the debut of its indie graphic novel after securing funding. What started 20 years ago as a blog of hand-drawn characters is now a cinematic graphic novel featuring an ensemble of 80 original characters, available on January 1st, 2026. THE STORY begins with “The Price of Life” chapter, when a grieving father has to make a choice - become a killer or never see his daughter alive again. This dark series promises an original take on the mobster genre, offering action, drama, comedy, futurism and even supernatural. How The Daily Mobster was made, Every "TDM" frame is crafted in a custom pipeline with Maya & RedShift, while Photoshop is used for graphics and InDesign for final layout. All the characters are hand-keyed by both of us, as if we were directing them in a stage play. We then light every scene, as if we were on a real film set, to capture timeless moments in the story. Anamorphic framing, depth of field, barrel distortion and grain give the nostalgic feel of 1920s film. And then finally, the graphical elements and textures are added to offer a deeper dive into backstory, characters and plot. The result is a multi-layered cinematic approach to a traditional graphic novel.

S3 Ep 373Let's talk Dirtbags with Americo Alvarenga and Madison Lee!

Introducing DirtBags; a brand new, 100% hand drawn and painted graphic novel by Americo Alvarenga and Madison Lee. Lithgow, Australia in 2008 is a small, mountain town plagued with the supernatural and urban legends that seem to be attracted to small towns. This is no coincidence and our protagonists, June and King, are two teens who have decided to capitalise on the strange and unusual nature of their hometown by offering their humble services, however inadequate they might be, to bust some ghosts. June is a self-taught medium and empath whom with her 8-Dimensional being, 8-BALL, has big plans to make enough money to get out of Lithgow where she feels her talents are going to waste. King is June’s best friend and is cursed with the inability to die, which June is constantly putting to the test. Along with King’s bubbly sister, Caitlyn, and their red-haired, home-schooled friend, Quinn; the teens take on the paranormal elements of their town and quickly learn that it is far more nefarious than they could have imagined. Dirtbags is Stranger Things meets South Park with a grunge and punk rock aesthetic that comes through the alternative artwork and quippy dialogue. Every paranormal encounter takes inspiration from real locations in the Blue Mountains, and anthemic songs from our youths. It plays with the concept of what most people dismiss as the overlooked and expands the idea that there is beautiful anarchy in the strange and unusual, the uncanny and the unknown; in what we lovingly call, DirtBags.

S3 Ep 343Mr. Floats and the CarnEvil of Souls

My next guest is the one and only Mr. Floats who stopped by to talk about his latest book and vinyl, Carnevil of Souls. In 1806, H.K. Grau created “Verlorene Seele” (The Lost Souls) based on the infamous 1711 carnival disaster. Reprinted under the title “CarnEvil of Souls” the book became known as the fable that originated the children’s song “Row Row Row Your Boat.” And now the forgotten classic has been restored for generations to come. Legendary actor Keith David (Hazbin Hotel, The Thing, Spawn, Gargoyles, Coraline, and The Princess & The Frog) will narrate this delightfully macabre book. His unmistakable voice brings unique gravitas, charm, and eerie elegance to this illustrated love letter to Tim Burton and Edward Gorey. You can get a copy of this on Kickstarter now by visiting https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/pcb-entertainment/mr-floats-and-the-carnevil-of-souls-childrens-book?ref=discovery&term=mr%20floats&total_hits=1&category_id=47 You can also follow Mr. Floats @mrfloats on Instagram Don't forget to subscribe to this channel for more updates.

S3 Ep 339Brayden Viloria talks Sketch Knight

Sketch Knight is set in a world with no alien babies landing in wheat fields, no chemical reactions granting superspeed, (maybe a couple orphans turned vigilantes). Instead people are affected by a human mutation granting them powers, these people are called "Enhanced". Haven and Sketch Knight along with everything in the Rook City Universe grows and expands Rook City. The reason we focus on a city is so that it can grow and evolve alongside the stories told within it. This allows tie ins of both series while still telling their own narrative, like how Daredevil and spider-man share New York City!
