Geek of Oz

Paul Bedford is a man's man, not in the sense that he belongs to another man, but in the sense that he is 100% bad arse dude. Big, strong and rough as guts he's not your stereotypical comic book creator. A modern day barbarian with a heart of gold, Bedford is the creator of The List. Previously reviewed on Beardy and The Geek, I found The List to be every bit as gritty and harrowing as the brilliant recent UK horror film The Kill List and every bit the "mind-f***" that it claims to be. Unfortunately, I wasn't present for this interview but Emmet performed admirably in my stead. In fact, I may have been dragging him down all this time. Check out the newest episode after the jump!

With only a week to rest your ear holes, Emmet from The Momus Report and I, the Geek, return for another episode of Beardy and the Geek. This week we have a chat to Darren Close, father of Rufus, a murderous anthropomorphic kangaroo (Killeroo) and creator of Oz Comics which is a place for comic book fans and creators to show off their skills through weekly challengers. Check out our interview and details on how you could have YOUR work published in a major upcoming Australian comic!

It is finally here! To all of those people who have been asking when the inaugural episode of "Beardy and the Geek" will be up, the answer is now. That said, you should already know this because the only people who asked this question were in my head. Jump on board for a snappy 23 minute chat with the incredibly well read and equally talented Emmet O'Cuana  (Beardy) and the perfectly adequate me (Geek) as we chat about the Australian comic book industry and Australian creators. Stay tuned for more reviews, more recommendations and a whole swag of interviews with some great people in the comic book biz. Check out the podcast after the jump!
