(Ep: 110) Building a World Where Everything Has Fallen Apart

In this episode I’m joined by Randall Drew (RK DIA Comics), creator of the high‑fantasy comic Citadel Volume One, now successfully funded via Kickstarter. When events from 200 years ago shattered the world, now those cracks have become the battleground. Randell takes us behind the scenes of building a fantasy epic—designing the world, raising crowdfunding, and tackling the “epic” genre in a bold, independent way. We’ll talk about how he developed the story, what makes Citadel different, and what he learned from crowdfunding success (his campaign reached its goal in just days). Whether you’re a fantasy fan, indie comic creator, or just love seeing big stories built from the ground up, this chat is for you.
