This week we chat with Ben Steeves, artist on Our Time in Eden – an ongoing online graphic novel written by Gibson Twist, who we profiled on the site last month.
Steeves is also the author and artist of Zom-Ben, a webcomic featuring the adventures of a comic-illustrator-turned-zombie-superhero. We chat about early 90’s comic book trading cards, innocence lost, and the walking dead. Which sounds suspiciously like my 14th birthday.
