NYCC 2015: Interview with Outcast’s Paul Azaceta

Thanks to STEVEN BISCOTTI at Whatchareading for the interview.

Friday, during a busy afternoon at New York Comic Con, What’cha Reading had the opportunity to speak with Paul Azaceta, the popular artist behind the unsettling visuals of Robert Kirkman’s latest title – Outcast. The already year old comic by Skybound and Image is soon to be a television series on Cinemax; its only added to the intensity of fandom that the New Jersey based and Cadence Comic Art represented artist has encountered. So, on this crowded and more attended than SDCC event, we found Paul Azaceta at the Skybound booth and spoke to him about everything from his experience at this year’s New York Comic Con, to the visual development and approach to his work, and just how you could obtain one of his original pieces of art.

A visually striking X-Files Trailer aired during Gotham. The two night series premiere is still a few months away (January 24 and 25 2016), but as an old fan of the original show (and even the movie) I am looking forward to it.

Todd McFarlane Live Draws Batman at NYCC 2015

One of the coolest things for me coming out of New York Comic Con this year was hanging out in the McFarlane booth when Todd would stop by. He is really a man of the people and likes to pop in the booth unannounced for things. He stopped in on Saturday to do drawing tutorials. This is where I ended up with this awesome piece of original McFarlane art:

I finally met up with Mel V. at the show and got to meet reader Beau (aka Minty Man Cave Comics). We got to talk for a little bit but it was time to hit the con floors.
