Episode #221 -- Daniel José Older Talks High Republic Adventures, Star Wars and Storytelling

Despite no new comics this week, we sat down with Daniel José Older to talk about the launch of Star Wars: The High Republic Adventure series at IDW, the art of storytelling and so much more.

The author of "Last Shot," the upcoming "Race to Crashpoint Tower," "Flood City," as well as the "Dactyl Hill Squad" and "Shadowshaper" series of books, Older is always an engaging conversationalist who melds his real-life experiences into a fictional tapestry of storytelling.
