Description

Welcome to Morgan Talks Comics, a podcast that is a deep dive into comics from the past and the present. I really started collecting comics and also really started making them in the 80s, and still collect and make them now!  Each week, I’ll be picking out some of the unknown gems and cult favourites the world of comics have to offer, and taking an in-depth look at what makes them worthy of being a cult comic in my eyes.


Let me introduce myself… I’m Morgan Gleave, a professional cartoonist and comic junkie! I’ve been drawing cartoons and comics for as long as I can remember, and I’ve been reading them for as long as I can remember too - I was lucky to have had some really cool comics and graphic novels bought for me when I was young, which grew into a real love of comics and cartoons of all shapes and sizes.


I really love comics and cartoons, so I hope you enjoy listening to the show, and have as much fun hearing it as I have making it!

Send us Fan Mail Welcome back to Morgan Talks Comics, a podcast about comics old and new. This week, I'm looking at one of my favourite comics of all time, DWELLINGS, by Jay STEPHENS, published by BLACK EYE BOOKS. It's really beautiful slice of 'cute' horror, intended for an older audience. Jay draws in a wonderful cartoon style with a very dark edge to it... these aren't kids comics! I love Jay's work, as he is a very big influence on my drawing and storytelling, using traditional cartoon st...

Send us Fan Mail This week, we're looking at a real British institution, The Beano, which has been in publication since 1938! There's a deep dive into British comic history, as this is where my love of the history of comics and cartoons really started. You can hear about how this started when I was little. This is also our longest episode so far, at over an hour long - we talk a lot about The Beano and how well established and respected it is, nearly 100 years after it started. (And also, the...
Send us Fan Mail Welcome to Morgan Talks Comics - you might notice the name change, which I will be bringing in soon, as the show has become more about talking about comics and their history, rather than just focusing on cult comics. I love comics of all shapes and sizes, so the show name will change to reflect that. This week, I'm talking bit the great British comic, 2000ad, which is coming up to being 50 years old, a remarkable feat in publishing, let alone in comics. I've been reading 2000...

Send us Fan Mail Welcome to Morgan's Cult Comics... a deep dive into comics from the past and the present. I really love comics, and I hope this comes through in the conversations that take place for this show. This week, I'm looking at a brand new comic, D'ORC created by cartoonist Brett Bean, and published by Image Comics. It's a great funny fantasy comic, similar in tone to Skottie Young's I HEART FAIRYLAND, on which Brett was also an artist. Expect lots of fightin', gallons of gravy...
