One such creative is hugely talented and highly prolific comics writer Magdalene Visaggio, who has a number of books on the go at the moment - MORNING IN AMERICA (Oni Press) with Claudia Aquirre and Zakk Saam and CALAMITY KATE (Dark Horse Comics) with Corin Howell and Valentina Pinto. Both books come at the fantastical from different directions, one from an ensemble cast and one from a solo voice, both approaches of which are new to Visaggio, as she explains in this interview with Dan, along with talking about how she draws from her own life experience to drive her characters, how Los Angeles and the Eighties have proven to be rich wells from which to mine for her books, and what books are currently blowing up her pull list... A cracking little chat. Enjoy!
