Having a chat with Dan McDaid about his career in American comics and leaving his mark on corporate properties rendering them in electrifying ink. More specifically we talk about breaking into comics at the Doctor Who Magazine, building up contacts on the defunct Comics Should be Good site, how well Joe Casey writes for his artists, how drawing two post-apolyptic series one after another (Judge Dredd: Mega-City Zero and Dawn of the Planet of the Apes) nearly broke him and how the pulpy fun of the Fearsome Dr. Fang made it all better. We discuss the anxiety of influence, we wondered if he could write-off on taxes a model-ship as a work expense for Sea Dogs (his back-up strip in the Hill House Comics line) and much more.
