This week on Creannotators, I talk Abominable Charles Christopher, Gotham Academy, Isola and more with creator Karl Kerschl. We talk what inspires the longrunning Eisner winning Abominable Charles Christopher, the philosophy behind Karl’s subscription website for his comics, when Isola may return, and much more!

On Comic Book Herald’s ‘Creannotators’ I’ll be interviewing some of my favorite creators in comics about specific runs, graphic novels or series, looking for their insights on the inspirations behind the work and ideas or hidden material readers may have missed. Creannotators is an audio annotative guide to enjoying the intricacies and thinking in the art. Thanks for listening, and enjoy the comics!

The Road to X-Men Inferno (2021) | Krakin’ Krakoa #197

by Leave a Comment

What is Inferno? The X-Men event series promises to deliver answer to many of the mysteries throughout the past two plus years of X-Men stories. Likewise, the theme of the event promos is that secrets, lies, and betrayals will rule the day, as allies, enemies, and leaders alike can’t be trusted. The mutant nation of Krakoa has offered the promise of paradise for mutantkind, but it’s likely that here in Inferno we’ll see that promises come burning to the ground.

Marvel is perpetually teasing that an “Event changes everything,” but there’s a real sense with Inferno that it will genuinely change the landscape of what we can come to expect from X-Men comics in 2022.

Spoilers for discussed comics may follow!
