It's February and our guest this month is Eisner and Bram Stoker Award winning writer John Jennings! John is also a professor of media and cultural studies at the University of California at Riverside and has just created the ABRAMS Megascope line of graphic novels, and of course he's a huge Doctor Who fan. John drops by to talk about his impressive writing career, how his Doctor Who fandom began, and what scared us all growing up.
Then John brings his Pick of the Month, the HBO hit sci-fi drama series, Lovecraft Country! We discuss the anthology-like structure of the show, how the show represented the Black experience, how the book differs from the show, and quite a bit about Lovecraft himself.
