TTR 315 Mark Tatulli

<p>Mark Tatulli, graphic novelist, syndicated cartoonist of "Lio," and old friend of the show is here to talk about his brand new book coming out on April 30th, "The Ex-Pets!"  The book is a rollicking adventure of a secret super-group of pets led by the Incredible Mr. Turtle, who protect the animals of the world. The story follows their newest member, Stanky Dog, and his reluctant journey to being a hero to save the kittens of the world from a dastardly plot by the villain, the Skunk! </p> <p>Mark and I talk about the joy of being silly, drawing cartoony animals, and making fun of superhero comics! Mark is a world-class cartoonist and writer, and even better person, so enjoy our chat! <a href= "https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-expets-mark-tatulli/20162995?ean=9781665914871"> You can pick up a copy of his book here!</a>  </p> <p><a href="https://www.gocomics.com/lio">You can read "Lio" right here</a> over on GoComics! </p> <p><a href="https://www.gocomics.com/heartofthecity">And you can read "Heart of the City,"</a> the comic Mark did for 22 years that was taken over by the amazing Christina "Steenz" Stewart in 2020!</p>
