In this episode of The Comic Source, Jace welcomes back fan-favorite writer Mark Russell to discuss his new Ahoy Comics one-shot, Thanksgiving. Known for weaving biting social commentary into relatable everyday scenarios, Russell explores the uneasy dynamics of family gatherings and how shared traditions can expose deep divides beneath the surface. The pair delve into the book's darkly humorous premise—a seemingly ordinary holiday dinner that spirals into moral chaos when one family member is revealed to be a killer—while unpacking the story's sharp reflections on modern America, empathy, and apathy. Jace and Mark also touch on Russell's collaboration with artist Alain Mauricet, whose grounded visuals and warm tones heighten both the satire and humanity of the tale. Before wrapping up, Mark teases his upcoming projects at Mad Cave Studios, including Racer X, Vanishing Point, and TerrorBytes, offering more of the thought-provoking storytelling that has made him one of comics' most distinctive voices.

GhostBox Spotlight with Pablo Raimondi NYCC 2025
Recorded live from the floor of New York Comic Con, this episode of The Comic Source features Jace in conversation with artist and co-creator Pablo Raimondi about his work on Ghost Box, the acclaimed ComiXology Originals series written by Mike Carey. Raimondi explains how the story centers on an ancient artifact capable of capturing the souls of the dead, allowing ghosts from across time to inhabit its current owner—offering him the chance to design a wildly diverse and visually stunning world. He discusses collaborating with colorist José Villarubia to create the book's spectral atmosphere and the balance between its sweeping fantasy elements and its deeply human core focused on family and emotion. With the Mad Cave print edition arriving November 18 — including an exclusive ten-page epilogue — Raimondi encourages listeners to experience what he calls some of Carey's best fantasy writing paired with his own most varied and expressive artwork yet.
