[JimInks]

I chat about myself a little, and about some of the comic book creators who I have known in two short interviews.

Did you manage to keep a blend smouldering during those? Can't imagine you stopping for that long!

Listen close, and you'll hear the sound of a lighter several times.

If you can stand watching for a couple hours, here's another one. You'll get plenty of pipe smoking, too.

It is absolutely remarkable how clearly you can speak while clenching a pipe.
Great stuff, Jim. Thanks for sharing.

Nothing about walking dead comics in the conversation. I never worked on those books. The interviews are about me and some the comics creators that I knew.

 

[Rossi320]

Yeah not intrested

 

[JimInks]

Yeah not intrested

The feeling is mutual, I'm sure.

I am interested but maybe tommorow while I wait for the girlfriend to wake up and I enjoy my tea and throwing rocks around Hyrule (A good way to listen to podcasts and interviews.)

 

[peckinpahhombre]

Very cool, Jim. I am going to check it out for sure.

I watched this and it was great. You are an incredible story teller. I loved the bit about your friend asking if you would walk on his sore back. LOL.

 

[JimInks]

Very cool, Jim. I am going to check it out for sure.

Thank you. I must tell you that I am very happy to see you post on the forum again. You're very much missed by a lot of us.

 

[Rossi320]

Keep posting, I am not interested in comic books, love the walking dead and know they started from them

 

[anotherbob]

Just being selfish and commenting so it's higher in my feed when I got the free time to finally listen to it tomorrow.

I enjoyed that a lot. Thanks for the link.

But I must confess that it's a bit disappointing that Jim doesn't actually look like EGR.

Exactly! He could at least commit to the suit and hairstyle for the sake of online continuity...

You would be very surprised at the number of people who actually have believed that I am EGR. I remember once in Chicago, I started talking to two guys when one of them said I looked familiar to him. When I told him that I was "JimInks", he said, "I should have known that. I see your avatar all the time." The other fella, "Oh man! I watch your movies on Turner Classics all the time."

Several people have told me that they they recognized me because they saw my photo on a tin of EGR while they were looking at me.

One guy said, "You don't look like you do in the movies." I said, "It's a good thing that I'm not Edward G. Robinson because I would died fifty years ago." He looked at me as if I was lying.

I could tell more stories like that.

Thanks Jim, great stuff! Good thing that we have some interviews of you too! Did you ever wrangle an interview from Steve Ditko?
