Our next guests need no introduction... but we're going to do it anyway! Walter & Louise Simonson are comic book royalty, each leaving an indelible mark on beloved characters and series. The interview ranges far and wide, with Louise revealing her earliest comics memories and discussing her transition from editing to writing with Power Pack. The couple shared insights about their first writer/artist collaboration on X-Factor, comparing notes on their individual titles, and the interesting contrast in their career paths. They also discussed Louise's role in launching the X-Men's first major crossover with "Mutant Massacre" and their co-writing experience on Havok/Wolverine: Meltdown. Of course, we couldn't finish without some Death of Superman talk, as well as Walt's next moves on Ragnarok and his recent, oversized Battle of Muspelheim commission.
Unfortunately, Louise is internet-absent, but you can follow Walt on Facebook and Instagram @walter.simonson.5.

Jim Krueger isn't just the "Alex Ross writer." Sure, he's had spectacular collaborations with the painter, from the Earth X trilogy and Justice to Project Superpowers. But Jim's body of work spans far and wide, even beyond those epics. He's worked on many licensed properties, including Star Wars, Micronauts, The Matrix, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. And of course there's some Batman issues and Capone vs. Dracula. Jim's also done his share of creator-owned work, including The Foot Soldiers, Alphabet Supes, The Clock Maker, The Runner, The High Cost of Happily Ever After and The Last Straw Man. Not bad for a guy who started as a marketing copywriter!
You can follow Jim on all the socials, including X and Instragram @imjimkrueger.
