Penny Dreadful season 2

Thanks to Anthony Pollock over on Soda and Telepaths for inviting me back to discuss season 2 of Penny Dreadful on his podcast.

Despite my bingeing the wrong season – and I outline why John Logan’s US-set revamp of the horror series Penny Dreadful: City of Angels disappointed me – and a quick digression on Rachel Pollack’s run on Doom Patrol, Anthony and I have a wide-ranging conversation about the ideas and themes of Penny Dreadful.

Podcast interview

Thanks to Anthony Pollock for the pleasant chat on his podcast Soda and Telecast, available on Apple podcasts and Spotify.

In this episode we talk about:

• my comics writing

• collaborating with Jeferson Sadzinski, Dave Dye, Ele Jenkins

• Dave's appearance on Deconstructing Comics

• and finally the main event, all things Penny Dreadful.

And yes that includes John Logan's return to the property with Penny Dreadful: City of Angels.
