Indie 429 – Phil killed the Walking Dead

San Diego Comic Con, Phil killed the Walking Dead and controversy revisited

Walking Dead is ending (spoiler). Who will help out Charlie Adlard? Is this good for him or bad for him?

We revisit the whole which is harder writer or drawing with Phil and I saying drawing is more physically demanding with Kevin siding with the writer (He does?). Followed up by Phil and I not liking Frank Miller but Kevin defends him (He does).
