Creannotators #94: “Dragon” interview with Dave Acosta!

by Leave a Comment

This week on Creannotators, I’m joined by comic artist Dave Acosta to talk about his work on Dragon in concert with graphic novel writer Saladin Ahmed. We discuss the creative process behind Dragon, Terrorwar on Substack, what made Dragon part of the hardest year, and new takes on Dracula.

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!

You can hear our full conversation on Comic Book Herald’s “Creannotators,” on the podcast.

But since some people prefer the ancient art of “reading,” we’ve also transcribed the interview below, talking with Brian and Andre about making the graphic novel. The transcription has been slightly edited for clarity. Read and enjoy!
