Creator Chit Chat: Kelly Thompson on The Cull

This week writer Kelly Thompson returns to the podcast to talk with Joe and occasional co-host Mighty Lee's Comics about her new series The Cull, drawn by Mattia De Iulis, lettered by Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou and published by Image Comics. The Cull #1 is out now, so go check it out at your local comic store if you're interested! The synopsis for the issue is as follows: "Something is Killing the Children-horror vibes mix with The Goonies-style adventure as five friends set off to shoot a short film on a forbidden rock near their home the summer before they all go their separate ways. But that’s not really why they’re there. One of them has lied… and it’s a lie that will change their lives forever." If you read the first issue and enjoy it, make sure to ask your local comic store to pre-order the upcoming issues for you as they are essential to the success of a comic like this.
