The demon letterer himself, Jim Campbell, returns to the book club with a Hibernia comics collection of the House of Daemon by John Wagner, Alan Grant and Jose Ortiz. We discuss how Ortiz achieves such superlative art, how Jim identified the letterers on the series, and the fact that Wagner & Grant were writing just all the British comics back then. This episode was recorded before the sad news of the death of 2000AD legend Alan Grant.
You can see Jim's tutorials on his blog, and find him on instagram, and get the Nate Piekos guide to comic book lettering from Blambot.
