Wayne’s Comics Podcast #689: Interview with Shawn Lewis and Rion Mosley Apr 20, 2025

Show notes

Immortalis is a gripping Indie comic that’s the result of the creative vision of both Shawn Lewis and Rion Mosely, who Wayne talks with this week in Episode 689.

Shawn and Rion began work on this successful Indie series back in 2021, and it has been coming out both as a self-published comic and from Markosia, one of the UK’s leading independent publishers, particularly in the graphic novel field. The series is available at that site here and also here as well as at their own website mandlcomics.com. The book is described this way: “Immortalis is the ongoing adventure of Tam Montefiore, born in 1813 to be the one true Deicide in the war between heaven and hell and the old gods of myth.” We talk about this book came to be, who the characters are, and what else these excellent creators have coming our way soon, including the 12th and 13th issues of Immortalis. Don’t miss it!

STEPHEN
THE GREAT BRITISH BUMP-OFF: KILL OR BE QUILT #1
Writer: John Allison
Artist: Max Sarin
Publisher: Dark Horse Comics
Release Date: April 9, 2025
Cover Price: $4.99
Surely there is no vacation more drama-free than a boating holiday along the sleepy canals of Yorkshire? Oh, you’d think so. Sadly, for Shauna Wickle, it’s tough to escape poisonous small-town rivalries (and sultry romantic entanglements) when travelling at a steady two to three miles per hour. And to make things worse, she’s about to find out how ruinously expensive a hastily-tied knot can be...

JUMPSCARE #2
Writer: Cullen Bunn
Artist: Danny Luckert
Publisher: Dark Horse Comics
Cover Price: $3.99
Release Date: April 9, 2025
Horror fan turned vigilante Jumpscare can conjure any gore-soaked weapon from any gore-soaked movie she's watched. Using this power, she's become a force for good in Empire City... and the world's most popular superhero! Even with all her powers, though, she may not be able to save her estranged sister from the clutches of mobster turned monster-Grindhouse! Especially with a band of eldritch zealots called the Dismal Concordat standing in her way!

BURIED LONG LONG AGO #1
Writer: Anthony Cleveland
Artist: Alex Cormack
Publisher: Mad Cave Studios
Cover Price: $4.99
Release Date: April 16, 2025
Based on true events, from 1901-1908 Belle Gunness lured dozens of lonely men to her Indiana farm and savagely murdered them for their money. Because Belle managed to avoid capture and face trial, much of this story remains untold. Until now. This is a fairy-tale retelling of her brutal crimes from the perspective of her three young children…who soon discover there is something far worse, and far more evil, than their mother on the farm. Something Buried Long, Long Ago.

AMERICAN FLAGG
Writer: Howard Chaykin
Artist: Howard Chaykin
Publisher: Dynamite Entertainment
Release Date: January 2009
In 2031, chaos is the new world order. Worldwide nuclear and chemical conflict, environmental disasters and nationalism have driven the United States government ― and the corporations that own it ― to the relative safety of the planet Mars. The government and its parent companies, now renamed the PLEX, run things in absentia from the red planet. The only real law on Earth is enforced by the Plexus Rangers. Reuben Flagg was the star of a television series dramatizing the fictional adventures of one such Plexus Ranger. When Flagg was replaced by a hologram, he was drafted into the Plexus Rangers and assigned to protect the city of Chicago. Along with Raul, the smartest talking cat alive, and Luther Ironheart, the stupidest robot ever, and surrounded by a bevy of the most beautiful women of the 21st century, Flagg faces an uphill battle protecting and defending the American way of life...or rather, what's left of it.
