EDITOR'S NOTE: I don't run advertising on this site, even though it provides a way to make a small profit to offset the time put into keeping content on POP CULTURE PODIUM. I believe ads slow down the speed that the site operates. I also didn't start doing this because I wanted a new income stream. I love comics and pop culture, feel there are many deserving works and creators that need more attention, and try to cater to my interests in smaller, independent works and items I feel my audience will share that interest in. However, I'm not averse to helping some of those creators utilize this site to promote their works - especially if they support this blog and contribute articles. So, without further adieu, I'm turning this over to a hard-working independent creator who wants you to investigate some of what he has to offer. Please give him some of your attention . . . . . . . .
It's that shopping time of year! For your gift list or for yourself, it's story and art from me to you, physical books or PDF downloads. Check out the special prices at DriveThruComics!
