About This Podcast

A podcast about the Kubert School. Joe and Adam graduated from the famed Joe Kubert School in 2010 and now they're interviewing past classmates, graduates, instructors, and administrators. The goal? It's not just to relive their college glory days (it sort of is), it's also to find out where a career in comic book art and illustration can take you. If you've ever considered a career as a comic book artist, or just wondered what it's like: join us!
