A good thing while there is that I got get a couple of panels recorded. The first one of these is the Spotlight on Ronald Wimberly panel moderated by David Brothers. Both are the homies and been guests on this show. Check out the programing information below.  “For the past 14 years, Ronald Wimberly has been telling stories that pair his world view with his strong storytelling instincts, resulting in works like the Eisner Award-nominated Lighten Up and The Prince of Cats, his collaborations with brands like Nike and Mishka, and even designing for animation like Black Dynamite. Wimberly will share his perspective on designing stories, agitprop and the politics of aesthetics, culture and appropriation, the importance of iconoclasm and why he suspects he'll never work for Marvel or DC again. Moderated by David Brothers.” Links: http://iamdavidbrothers.com/ http://tumblr.iamdavidbrothers.com/ @hermanos | Twitter https://imagecomics.com/features/theiword https://imagecomics.com/comics/series/image-plus  http://ronaldwimberly.com/ @raynardfaux | Twitter @ronaldwimberly | Instagram Get at me @julianlytle on Twitter, IG, Snapchat, Tumblr, Soundcloud & Vine email the show at ignorantblisspodcast@gmail.com 00:52:00Julianlytlenopodcast,talk,comics,comic books,Comic ConSpotlight on Ronald Wimberly panel moderated by David Brothers.Ignorant Bliss 44: Ronald Wimberly 5https://www.blogtalkradio.com/ignorantbliss/2016/07/15/ignorant-bliss-44-ronald-wimberly-5Pop Culturehttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/ignorantbliss/2016/07/15/ignorant-bliss-44-ronald-wimberly-5/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/ignorantbliss/2016/07/15/ignorant-bliss-44-ronald-wimberly-5Fri, 15 Jul 2016 13:30:00 GMTIgnorant Bliss 44: Ronald Wimberly 5So a few weeks back Ron posted a piece of writing on Tumblr called “Stop doing spec pages: Why DC, Marvel, Boom etc. should pay you for your test pages.” He wrote about how the Majors of the comic book industry shouldn’t solicit free spec pages from artists they might want on their comics. We talk that and some of the discussion it caused in some places online. We go into more comic business ethics talk and identity within the culture of comics. There are some tangents on film and television.
