Baking connoisseur Trey Walker was gracious enough to step out of the brazen heat of the kitchen, and join the podcast. Trey and I spoke about his unique experience of transforming his storytelling passion into a career. Both working in traditional comic books and web comics via Webtoons . Trey and his project partner decided to make the jump and transform the successful run on webtoons for the book Last Stop into a full fledge comic. This was not an easy task, but they came out on top and Scout Comics was interested in the publication.

Matías Bergara, gives us a wealth of information during this interview. We spoke about the whole illustrative experience. Starting with his education. The obsession he had with studying masters from multiple mediums, like director Akira Kurosawa and comic illustrator Alberto Breccia. Matías and I discuss what it is like to work with a writer whom you have never met, and design beautiful characters like those below. We touch on the difficulties of self sabotage and what social media does to the fleeting image. Please listen to the interview and support the podcast on Spotify and YouTube.
