Ronald Wimberly interviewed by Julian Lytle at Fantom Comics (photos)

 Here's Fantom's video.  That cut out a little before the end of the interview. Here's clip 1 and clip 2 concluding the interview.

We're hosting artist and writer Ronald Wimberly (Now Let Me Fly, LAAB Magazine, Prince of Cats) here at the shop in conversation with local creator Julian Lytle! It's been a couple years since they've been in the store last to come on by for their return! They'll be chatting about art practice in general, Ronald's new book NOW LET ME FLY: A PORTRAIT OF EUGENE BULLARD—and maybe even that upcoming GratNin physical edition from beehivebooks? Stop on by to listen to the discussion!

Here's my pictures:

 Creators Derrick Barnes and Shawn Martinbrough were at Fantom Comics on SUNDAY, JULY 9th at 12pm to sign copies of their books and we have pictures. I didn't realize that Martinbrough still lived around here, and I hope to have an interview with him soon.
