The Urbanbarbarian Speaks

Posted on by

One of my favorite artists, Dan Panosian is featured in an interview with Chris Arrant over at Newsarama.  Here are a few quotes from the Dan…

  • Dave Johnson, Jeff Johnson and I started Drink and Draw in early 2005 and it’s taken off like Fight Club around the globe. There are literally Drink and Draw Chapters all over the country and all over the world. It’s amazing.
  • Comic Twart is a real honor to be a part of and a great excuse to draw some eclectic/off beat character studies.
  • The Retro 70’s Luke Cage/Iron Fist pin-up/pitch you mentioned was something I really wanted to see Marvel do. I wrote a very fun script for what could be a four issue limited series and I was genuinely thrilled by the tons and tons of re-posts across the internet clamoring for it to happen.
  • I got into the comic business because I loved the Conan comic book so much. Even my website, www.UrbanBabarian.com is a homage to Conan…  I’m drawing issues 9-10 of Conan: Road of Kings written by Roy Thomas for Dark Horse. I can’t tell you how thrilled I am. It’s a dream of mine to work on this book.

Dan also discusses his start in comics, how he hooked up with Image in the early days, what he was doing when he “disappeared” from comics, his work on video games and a character called Duke Nukem, and much, much more.
