Gutter Boys (JB and Cam)

Trash bags filled with cut ribbons and torn wrapping paper line the streets. Fridges across the country are packed to the brim with Tupperware containers full of leftovers. The eggnog is gone, and so is the brother-in-law that loves saying the N word, and he's definitely not black. All signs point to the the day Dr. Melfi referred to as "Stressmas" has come and gone once again and we're nearing the end of another year. But before everyone huddles around their COVID-exposed friends and family to welcome 2022, there's still one more Gutter Boys episode to stream so you can find out who are this years PIMPS & SIMPS of 2021. After the awards, we're joined with Brian Baynes of Bubbles Fanzine and Ryan Holmberg to discuss their recent book Bat Kid. Originally written and drawn by Inoue Kazuo and serialized in Manga Shōnen from 1947 to 1949, Bat Kid was re-released this year by Bubbles in a brand new English translation to reintroduce a whole new generation of comic readers to post-war manga and Kazuo's influential career.

Even though we said we wouldn't have repeat guests on the main feed, it's only fair to have 2021's Pimp of the Year Jasper Jubenvill come on for a second time to really hash it out for the listeners. We go in-depth about process, his influences, his current love affair with Elden Ring, and why Cam loves WWE2K22 so much.

EDITOR'S NOTE: We erroneously referred to Nate McDonough as a Pimp of the Year when in fact he was only the recipient of the Dudes Rock Award. JB will receive 20 lashings from Nate for his transgression and we hope you can find it in your hearts to forgive us.

If we were white and British, we would make everyone black for the Queen's Empire. But we're not, so instead we're going to talk about comics. On this episode, we speak with NYC-based cartoonist and educator G. Davis Cathcart to talk about the reprint of his book 1-800-Ghosts available now at Fantagraphics. We also speak on art education in the US, his background in pedagogy, what sparked his interest in this thing of ours, and why his parents bullied him as a child.

You have a collect call from Ligma, do you accept? Of course you do, because it's time for another episode of GUTTER BOYS. The boys are joined by a literal boy, Philly-based cartoonist Nate Garcia, to talk about how he can't even legally buy a beer yet but has still made more comics than most of you scrubs. His self-published body of work includes three issues of his one-person anthology Hornrim and his newest book Alanzo Sneek, available now directly from his webstore. Nate is a great dude and someone we've been meaning to have on the show for a while now, so it's nice to finally have him on instead of just reading his DM's asking us what we had for breakfast again.

Whose names are inducted in the halls of fame and shame alike for 2023? You'll have to tune in to find out.

PS This one is nearly 2 hours long to make up for our absence from the week prior. You're welcome ;)

When the 2021 Guysner Award winner Nate McDonough asked us to have Providence-based cartoonist and illustrator Ryan Alves on an episode, we knew this was a big favor. Would we set a dangerous precedent by allowing someone to dictate who comes on? Would Ryan Alves meet the high watermark set by past guests? The answer to both questions is yes. If you're a Guysner winner, you get more leeway. And besides, Ryan is great and he would've been on the show anyway. To Nate's credit, he did expedite the process. Again, Guysner. After a few scheduling conflicts, we finally sat down with Ryan to talk about his rapidly growing body of work including Bubblegum Maelstrom and Moustache, why he got into comics, his experience at the Winter Hocking Hills Cartoonist Retreat, and who has the biggest hog in Batman's rogues gallery (it's Bane).

Light up a fatty for these pimp daddies and say PIMPIN' AIN'T THAT HARD THO. We're joined with Brooklyn-based cartoonist/illustrator Brian Blomerth, creator of such fine books like Bicylcle Day and Mycellium Wassonii by Anthology. gets real. If you want to know the closely held secrets of making it big in small press or as a freelance artist, then wait for another episode because this ain't it. But for real, this interview is a blast and we had a groovy time with Brian discussing his development as an artist, his sources of inspiration, and how he ended up being one of the biggest names in alternative comics.

Check out more of his work via his website or follow him on Instagram @pupsintrouble.

Oh baby we're back and the boys are... kinda bummed. RIP Tony Sirico, James Caan, & Duchess. Thankfully, we have Derek Marks on the show to help us deal with our dreary summer blues. Derek is a Michigan-based cartoonist whose self-published works include Legendary Spirits and his ongoing comic Fabulous Topless Woman. We talk about his background, how he manages his time while still having a career outside of comics, his influences and inspirations, the many high and lows of tabling at comic shows, and what he's cooking up next.

Check out more of Derek's work on his website at derekmarks.net and follow him on Instagram and Twitter @derekgmarks.
