After two years, it was about time I officially praised this podcast with a review.
The fact that this podcast -- quite possibly the best comics podcast out there -- is David Harper's spare-time side hussle rather than his job never ceases to amaze me. The passion and care that go into each episode are clear: this is someone who loves the medium and wants you to understand and love it too. The breadth of coverage is also, as David would likely put it, "astonishing." Creators from all over the industry have made appearances, in addition to shop owners, journalists, and the occasional fellow fan. With most interview podcasts, I typically skip over episodes featuring people whose work I'm not already familiar with. But over the last couple years of listening, David has made it consistently worthwhile to tune in for every episode anyway, leading to my discovery and acquisition of many fantastic titles I'd likely never have even heard about otherwise. (I should note: there seems to be a negative review here that actually criticized the variety of guests, and I am honestly baffled by how anyone could actually think that. This is someone who is as hyped about the new Hulk and Doctor Strange as he is about Raina Telgemeier and Murder Falcon). Whether you're a seasoned veteran of comics reading, a creator, a retailer, or even just looking to learn a little bit more about the longstanding storytelling form, you will be hard-pressed to find a better show than Off-Panel.Read full review »
