Episode 213: Skottie Young

The Great Big Beautiful Podcast

This week, we're geeking out with one of our very favorite artists working in comics/graphic novels today: Skottie Young! If you're familiar with Young, you're familiar with his unique, recognizable-at-once style. For 15 years, he's been at the center of the industry and has had a hand in almost every major character. That's almost literally true - he's done "baby" variant covers for nearly every Marvel title. On this episode, we talk about the "dream scenario" of how he started in comics, how he struggled to not get unfairly pigeonholed early in his career, the long journey to Middlewest and where it'll go from here, the freedom of working on your own stories, and lessons from fatherhood.
