If there’s any argument to be had that We Talk Comics provides the best audio anywhere about comic books and everything related to it we’re going to put that to rest with this episode featuring the unstoppable Chuck Dixon.

In an equally informative and hilarious interview Chuck Dixon opens up no holds barred on way more topics than we could ever hope to list here, but just a sample includes:

  • Bane in the movies and his thoughts about Christopher Nolan’s Batman Films
  • Listening to his father tell war stories and trying to respect that when writing The ‘Nam
  • Adapting Clinton Cash into a graphic novel
  • Being black listed by some comic book publishers
  • The Tim Drake storyline that he wasn’t allowed to do when writing Robin
  • Rob Liefeld (‘Nuff Said)
  • Critical darlings and the respect of his peers
  • Interacting with Sylvester Stallone on about Expendables 2
  • How Stan Lee is still “The Man”
  • Just how he did write so many books in one month
  • Who his favorite Robin is
Chuck Dixon and arguably his most famous creation, Bane.

And that’s just a sample, but if that doesn’t get you excited then you’re fooling yourself, because Chuck Dixon was awesome on this show, and we got a special little treat we’re cooking up with Chuck for down the road, so listen to this first and check out Chuck Dixon’s blog at The Dixonverse to keep up on what he has going on.
