Comic Timing – Episode 112: Mark Waid Interview

On today’s episode, Brent and I have the privilege of interviewing comics visionary and newly promoted Chief Creative Officer of Boom Studios, Mark Waid! Mark has been the writer on such books as Kingdom Come, The Flash, Amazing Spider-Man, Captain America, JLA, The Incredibles, Potter’s Field and countless others. Today, we focus on his upcoming collaboration with Stan Lee and Chris Hardin on Stan Lee’s The Traveler, a new book out of Boom. We also discuss the other two books Stan is collaborating on, we give a quick overview of Irredeemable and Incorruptible for those who have yet to pick it up, and we touch on Mark’s current Amazing Spider-Man storyline “Origin of the Species,” which will conclude the Brand New Day Era of the title. Thanks to Cameron at DCBS for setting up the interview, and major thanks for Mark Waid for chatting with us! We had a lot of fun and can’t wait to see him and the rest of Boom at the New York Comic Con.
