Creannotators #50: “Dreadstar Returns” with Creator Jim Starlin & Inker Jaime Jameson!

by Leave a Comment

This week on Creannotators, I talk with comics legend – seriously he’s one of my favorite creators of all time! – Jim Starlin and inker Jaime Jameson about the upcoming Dreadstar Returns, an all-new graphic novel from Ominous Press. We talk about the team’s approach to relaunching the Dreadstar universe, why Starlin continues to escalate cosmic stakes in work on Thanos and now Dreadstar, and whether Marvel Studios has appropriately compensated Starlin for his many Marvel Cosmic creations, including Thanos, Drax, Gamora, & Shang-Chi (among many more!).

On Comic Book Herald’s ‘Creannotators’ I’ll be interviewing some of my favorite creators in comics about specific runs, graphic novels or series, looking for their insights on the inspirations behind the work and ideas or hidden material readers may have missed. Creannotators is an audio annotative guide to enjoying the intricacies and thinking in the art. Thanks for listening, and enjoy the comics!
