Indie Comic Artist Interview: Katherine Wirick

Last updated on: January 22, 2014 at 11:18 pm   By Jonathan Ryan

I’m writing this from New Orleans, the land of dreams and nightmares. I’m going to be posting about my time here later in the week. In the meantime, allow me to introduce you to an amazing artist and writer, Katherine Wirick. A few weeks ago, I attended S.P.A.C.E. con, an Indie Comic-Con convention. Katherine’s work drew me in because she published a whole graphic novel in an impressive, painting size piece of art. When I took time to read her... Read more

The Redemptive Spider-Man

Last updated on: July 26, 2013 at 8:05 pm   By Jonathan Ryan

(Major Spoiler Warnings. If you haven’t been keeping up with Amazing Spider-Man/Superior Spider-Man, and plan to do so, you shouldn’t read this). Today, Marvel released “Superior Spider-Man” Issue 9 and capped a hugely important story line with this issue. For those of you who don’t follow Spider-Man, the comic world was rocked with the news that “The Amazing Spider-Man” line would end at issue 700. Speculation abounded. Was this just one of many tricks to sell more comic books? Was... Read more

Indie Comic Interview: Jacob Warrenfeltz

Last updated on: January 22, 2014 at 11:18 pm   By Jonathan Ryan

As readers of Geek Goes Rogue know, I went to  S.P.A.C.E. Indie Comic Con in Columbus, Ohio a few weeks ago. I had the chance to meet some fantastic artists and I want to introduce them to you. Jacob and I  had a great conversation about his just released comic, Villains Galore. The comic is based on the question: what happens when villains try to go straight? I love the idea, and loved the comic. You will too. Jacob is also the founding member... Read more

Storytelling is Serious Business

Last updated on: July 26, 2013 at 8:05 pm   By Jonathan Ryan

  This morning, my work required a small trip to meet with one of my staff. I turned on the local sports talk radio which was broadcasting the Colin Cowherd show. Colin is a bit of a jerk. Okay, not kinda, he is one. He makes fun of losers, hates “fly over country,” and basically shows his behind on a daily basis. But, today, he said something I’ve heard too many times from friends and my Christian friends as well.... Read more

The Dragon Slayer

Last updated on: April 23, 2013 at 7:52 am   By Jonathan Ryan

Here at Geek Goes Rogue, we love the Saints. These folks are like real, live comic book characters come to life. So, every week, we are going to feature these awesome, wacky, beautiful and faithful people of God. Today’s saint?                   St. George From the Catholic Encyclopedia:  The best known form of the legend of St. George and the Dragon is that made popular by the “Legenda Aurea”, and translated into English by Caxton. According to this, a terrible dragon had... Read more

Summer Movie Season…Whew….

Last updated on: April 22, 2013 at 12:17 am   By Jonathan Ryan

    It’s been a pretty horrible week. The Boston Horror ended after a week long manhunt for the bombers. On top of all this, I heard politicians calling for more security, more cameras and more restraints on civil liberties. This makes me cold. Very cold. Many arty movie critics make sneering comments about Summer Movie season calling it “pure escapism”. I’ve talked about this sort of attitude many times here on Geek Goes Rogue. I find it revolting and... Read more

When bad things happen….heroes will rise…..by love….

Last updated on: July 26, 2013 at 8:05 pm   By Jonathan Ryan

I’ll say it straight out. The past six months have been skubulos from all angles. I don’t get any of it. I don’t know why God allows bad things and I don’t know why people do horrible things. The horrors of the past year make us gape in astonished fear. Sandy Hook broke me in a way national tragedy hasn’t done since 9/11. I’m have two elementary school kids who attend a public school. I fought my own fear and... Read more

The Indie Comic Adventure

Last updated on: July 26, 2013 at 8:05 pm   By Jonathan Ryan

For a time, I resisted calling myself a writer. The simple reason for this is I felt writer is closely connected with artist. I didn’t feel like I was an artist. Artists seemed to lack any joy in their work. Even more strange, they almost felt insulted if people LIKED their work or somehow identified with it. Kurt Cobain is a prime example of this. He could never understood why his work got so popular. Tragically, he couldn’t deal with... Read more

This weekend, I’ll be attending the SPACE Indie Comic Expo this weekend. I’ll be giving reports all weekend starting tomorrow night with the big bash at The Laughing Ogre, the world’s best comic book store. Look for me.

Mysterious Tales of the Sacramental Comic Book Part One

Last updated on: June 21, 2013 at 7:08 pm   By Jonathan Ryan

The legendary Christian music artist, Steve Taylor, wrote a song in the mid-eighties called Hero. You can listen to the whole thing here. But, listening to the lyrics again today, some things struck me hard in my so-called spiritual journey. The song starts with a beautiful picture of a boy reading a comic book at night. “When the house fell asleep/there was always a light/And it fell from the page/to the eyes/of an American boy/In a storybook land/I could dream... Read more
