Click the pic to Peep the pilot episode of Comicbook Diner. Get the knowledge on making comics from them boys at sky-dog.com. My man Jamar Nicholas (Detective Boogaloo) builds with his peoples Rich Faber and John Gallagher (Roboy Red) about the business of working in comics. Not the pie-in-the-sky version, but some real nuts and bolts type isht.

In this episode, Jamar speaks in-depth about his upcoming book Fist Stick Knife Gun: A Personal History of Violence.  This joint is the graphic adaptation of Geoffrey Canada's memoir... if the name isn't familiar, you've pro'lly seen Geoff lately in the American Express commercial repping the Harlem Children's Zone. Apparently, dude came up grimy, 'cause his book touches on the culture of violence that 'Urban' kids come up in. So anyways, Jamar breaks down how he got hooked up with Canada, and his experience with Beacon Press and Random House, the publishers of Fist Stick Knife Gun.  the 'real world' of publishing comics outside of the mainstream comics industry...
They also talked about webcomics and other non-traditional publishing opportunities and hinted at some other topics to expect in future episodes of Comic Book Diner, which we expect to be updated weekly at sky-dog.com/comicbookdiner so govern yourself accordingly!
