I have no problem saying that this is a major work by major artist. This book is easily the hip-hop equivlanet of Michael Azzerad's 2001 document of the rise American Indie and Alternative rock "Our Band Could Be Your Life". Great interview Seth and glad to get a peek into the creative process of this comic. I’ve been reading this comic since he first started serializing it on Boing Boing and loving every page.

Clay Moore, Steve Niles, and Tony Harris on The Whistling Skull and Chin Music. -Portfolio reviews with editors are definitely a must have. -A panel on crowd-funding and the potential for great comics would be cool (could invite Ryan Browne to talk about GHA, Gail Simone and Jim Calafiore on Leaving Megalopolis, and Robert Atkins on EOTR). -Guillory and Layman on Chew. -I feel like in the past year or two a lot of great female creators have made it big so it would be cool if they joined the veterans for a female creator panel. i.e. Jenny Frison and Ming Doyle with Kelly Sue, Becky Cloonan, and Amanda Conner. -BRING TOGETHER SOME VETERANS OF HEROES CON WHO MAY NOT BE THE BIGGEST NAMES BUT COULD SHARE THEIR MEMORIES OF THE SHOW. THEY COULD BE LONG TIME VOLUNTEERS OR STAPLES OF ARTIST ALLEY WHO MAY NOT BE THE BIGGEST NAMES, BUT ARE STILL A HUGE PART OF THE CON.
