  • I love these interviews!

    I have been reading comics for over 45 years now. Growing up in the Bronze Age was such a thrill!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Indie Insights: Alexis Fajardo | The Kid Beowulf Odyssey Annual
Q: If I am brand new to Kid Beowulf, is there an entry point you'd recommend or can I jump in anywhere?
Lex explains that each book works as its own story but also connects to the larger Beowulf and Grendel arc; the Odyssey installment is designed to be episodic, offering accessible entry points while still linking to the broader mythology.
Indie Insights: Alexis Fajardo | The Kid Beowulf Odyssey Annual
Q: Absolutely. How did you get into comics and what were your early influences?
Lex describes growing up reading comic strips, then discovering Asterix and Tin Tin, followed by Conan and the broader Marvel universe, which shaped his approach to storytelling and visual style.
Alex Sinclair
Q: what is your approach to balancing iconic character design with fresh look, especially on revisiting characters?
I aim to honor the core recognition of icons like Batman or Spider-Man while pushing the palettes and lighting to fresh directions, using collaboration with the penciler and writer to set mood and distinct momentary tones.
Alex Sinclair
Q: what was your first published book, and how did you break into the field?
My first published work with my name in the book was Death Mate Zero for Rob Liefeld's Pages, followed by Union No. 1 as the first full coloring job on a book, which established my professional coloring career.
Alex Sinclair
Q: when did you first get into the craft of comics and start focusing on coloring?
I was drawn to coloring after conventions and conversations with editors and artists, eventually learning to code colors, then switching to digital coloring with Photoshop, which transformed how I worked and opened up new possibilities.
