This is it! Yesterday, we kicked off “One Year Later.” Today, I go to the mic to talk with Kurt Sasso over at TGT all about it. Over the course of our conversation we covered everything from why SuperFogeys is making this radical shift to how it [...]
One Year Later, as I’ve mentioned before, means a lot of design work for both old characters and new. In fact, that design work is still an ongoing concern. Sam and Spy Gal were the first two Marc worked on because they were the first to show up, in SF 564. For Sam, I wanted [...]
