DANNO KLONOWSKI is a cartoonist and podcaster. MATT “SHLOGGS” RISNES is a noted film blogger and podcast guest. They have been friends for nearly 20 years and like talking about stuff at length and in-depth. The seventh episode opens with listener mail and a discussion of Shloggs recent obsession, the film BEYOND THE BLACK RAINBOW (which you can see streaming on Netflix). Then it’s on to the topic at hand: FRANK MILLER!!!

FRANK MILLER, for the uninitiated, is the cartoonist responsible forever changing the direction of DAREDEVIL and BATMAN. He also created a couple series you may have heard of called SIN CITY and 300, which he went onto ‘co-direct’ and produce, respectively. Frank’s also the writer of ROBOCOP 2 and 3, the writer/director of the reviled THE SPIRIT, and the creator of the equally reviled graphic novel HOLY TERROR.
Danno and Shloggs have a lively and philosophical talk about Frank and are even joined last minute via email by Friend of the Show @RafeGuttman, who has even posted this video review of BEYOND THE BLACK RAINBOW, drawing the show full-circle.
The ART & MAKING OF THE DARK KNIGHT TRILOGY book is SOOOOOOOO good.
