To celebrate Halloween and all things horror films and comics, the Comic Book Yeti podcast held a ghoulishly fun horror roundtable with David Ian McKendry (Barstow), Kyle Starks (Where Monsters Lie, Those Not Afraid), and John Harris Dunning (Summer Shadows, Ripperland)! Hosted by Byron O’Neal, the horror authors spoke about their favorite horror films, the scariest movies, movies that inspired their work, horror comics adapted into films, and tangents into the comics industry itself and what it’s like to collaborate on projects.
Here are just a few of the highlights of the episode:
