Cartoonist and playwright Dean Haspiel<\/a> checks in from Brooklyn (home of his superhero, The Red Hook<\/a>!). We talk about making art (good, bad or ugly) during the plague, finding yourself while putting your life on hold, how our social norms may change after the pandemic subsides, the virtue of online comics, bingeing on 1970s comics by Steve Gerber, feeling sad (but not self-pity) when his play, The War of Woo<\/a>, had to be postponed last month, and more. \u2022 Give it a listen!<\/a> And go read season 3 of The Red Hook<\/em>, STARCROSS<\/a>, and nominate it for Best Webcomic<\/strong> at the Ringo Awards<\/a>!<\/p>\n
