[Rebroadcast] Episode 437: Titan Comics’ Chris Thompson
This episode was originally broadcast on October 5, 2017.
While the first name in British comics is undoubtedly 2000AD, Greg recently got a chance to talk with a representative of the other big player in comics across the pond: Chris Thompson, Brand Manager for Titan Comics.
For over 35 years, Titan has brought two different areas of books to its British audience: film & TV tie-ins, and graphic novels. Just this month sees the return of Jack Kirby & Joe Simon’s Fighting American and iconic science fiction hero Dan Dare, but also the launch of Statix Press, an initiative by the publisher to bring a diverse selection of European comics to English-speaking readers.
In his role as Brand Manager, Chris is definitely THE person to talk to when it comes to Titan. But this being Robots, Greg also digs a little in Chris’ backstory and how he went from young comics reader to the Eisner-winning bon vivant you hear today (and on his Multiversity Comics podcast Pop Culture Hound).

Welcome to the All-New, All-Different Pull List Episodes!
With Diamond halting new comics distribution for the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, Mike & Greg decided, rather than drop these episodes all-together, to just change up the format. So for this four hundred twenty-first installment of the Pull List series, the lads chose:
1) A previous year’s Pull List choice.
2) Something else pulled from their own collections.
There may not be new comics to choose from this week, but hopefully these new Pull List episodes give just as much food for thought in choosing what goes into your quarantine reading queue.
Stay safe and enjoy your funny books!
