Look, you can stop asking "Who do you think should be in the next Batman movie?" because we are beyond SICK of that question!!! Just stop it! Enough already!! Basta es basta!
(besides, the obvious answer is Robin an the Joker. Duh!)

However, I will tackle a few of the questions so many of you ask me over and over.

1) What do you consider to be the 'Must-Read' graphic novels?

Here's a good starter list of the Best of the Best (a couple clicks should take you to their Amazon listings)

2) You often mention having worked in the comic book industry. What comics did you work on?


Sorry, I'm not gonna post my resume here, but I freelanced for almost every company at one time or another. Possibly the most famous piece was this Spider-man poster that I collaborated on with Todd MacFarlane (which I stupidly forgot to sign).




3) I'd like to draw comics when I grow up. What books should I buy?

There's so many that can help you (mostly photo reference books), but these are the only books you'll ever NEED:

Dear Leon,

Where would i be able to buy animation cells? And do i need to get something special inorder to work with them?

sincererly,

That Guy

Cels stopped being "inked" years (decades) ago. Usually cleaned up pencil drawings are xeroxed onto them.

If you are going to ink them you need India ink or the ink that comes with the Rapidograph pens you'll be using.

what do you think about the last few ep of community? -_-

love 'em.

Hey Leon, I know I'm late for the Hunger Games Q&A, both for the main page and LEOG, but in your opinion who is the greater of two evils in the series. President Snow or President Coin? And why?

Hey Leon, me and my dad are coming down to Austin to visit UT in about a week.  Two questions: what's the public transportation like in Austin, and what are some good hotels/restaurants/hangouts that are kinda near the UT campus?

Dear Leon,

How do you do how do (or can) you do shading (in varying degrees) when your inking in a comic when you don't have a computer that can, outside of cross hatching?

sincererly,

That Guy

If you haven't done so by now, collect Fury MAX.

I'm going to be bold and say this title (if it's not prematurely canceled or messed with) will be BETTER than Punisher MAX.

It's Ennis back to what he does best, telling war stories. The first arc is about how Fury gets a reality check during the collapse of Indochina into Cambodia, Vietnam, and Laos. Pretty much the rules of war have changed since WWII and this series is pretty much going to explain why Fury becomes that guy who doesn't trust anyone not even his own country. I can't wait for the next arc that deals with Cuba and the Bay of Pigs. 

Hey Leon,

You guys talked about nostalgia in your last podcast.  Do you have movies from your childhood/teenage years that you now completely recognize as bad, but can't not like?  Is that something you believe most people have?  If it is...what is it you think makes that happen?

I have it.  A movie like 3 Ninjas, which I loved when I was a kid, now I see and I am like...it's not a good movie...but I still like it...and I don't know why.

Ethan Hunt (Not Really)

PS - Keep up the great work and I hope you had fun at the con.

Where and when do you (usually) post the topics for upcoming LEOG episodes and ask for fan questions?

Hey Leon,

What was the most distressed you got, learning that a creator (whether it be comic or movie) has passed?

*I don't know if that question is worded correctly, so please forgive me.

Isaac Hayes.
