Talking Howard The Duck

Talking Howard the Duck

Writer Mark Arnold has made a pretty good sideline with books about classic cartoons and comics. He’s not always going where you think, as his most recent effort dives deep into the Saturday morning Pac-Man cartoon. Didn’t know there was one? Get the book!

Though we both spent time living in the San Francisco Bay Area, our paths have only crossed virtually. A few weeks ago, he put the call out on Facebook for “experts” on Marvel’s Howard the Duck to guest on his podcast. Do I qualify? Does my complete run of Howard the Duck in both comics and magazines count? The plush Howard souvenir from Mission: Breakout says yes.

Along with artist Chris Leonido, we had a fun conversation — perhaps full of fun ideas — on Mark’s Fun Ideas Podcast!
