Joel Meadows | Sherlock Holmes and The Empire Builders: The Gene Genie

Yes, another Sherlock Holmes book! The longtime EIC of Tripwire, Joel Meadows, joins the Bandits to talk about the second volume of his Sherlock Holmes and The Empire Builders story. You may know Joel as a journalist, who's written extensively about comics, film, and genre narratives throughout the UK. He's written two books about comics: Studio Space (as co-author) about where and how 20 of the world's best comic artists work, and Masters of Comics, which covered more comic artists and their workspaces. Part II of The Gene Genie finds Holmes at his lowest ebb, having lost his closest friend and confidante to prime minister Oswald Mosley’s thugs.The Gene Genie Kickstarter has ended, but you can still late-pledge for both volumes of the story at http://kck.st/4foyZko.
