Episode Details

Returning guest and rising comic book coloring superstar STEVE CANON is back for an unfiltered, no-holds-barred deep dive into the world of a professional colorist!   In this episode we bring the heat on:

• Coloring Danny Earls’ mind-blowing architectural covers for Sam & Twitch: Gangland
• The Daniel Warren Johnson Youngblood relaunch variant for Rob Liefeld
• Upcoming Dark Souls miniseries by George Mann
• Alpha Clash comic (the lore book for the hot new tabletop game)
• The real state of the comic industry in 2025 — creator-owned vs. the Big Two, building leverage, and surviving as a pro
• AI in comics: helpful tool or existential threat? (and why the line is getting scary-blurry)
• Why some “simple” covers take weeks while others are done in a day
• Steve’s complete coloring workflow: Procreate → Clip Studio → Photoshop breakdown
• Balancing full-time fatherhood while coloring some of the hottest books on the stands right now
