Summary

Professional commercial & comic book artist, and Co-Host of @PoliticalPunks, Brett R. Smith joins Brian to talk about how 80s comics and cartoons were our high point, and also how the comics industry blackballed him after a long career as a colorist after he was hired to create the graphic novel version of “Clinton Cash.” The cancellation happened despite the book being a #1 best seller, but led Brett to find others in the biz like him, and create brand new comics.
