    Cool Cartoonist Kayfabe Mignola Interview

    Hey y'all I was surprised I didn't see this here but Cartoonist Kayfabe had a really cool interview with Mike Mignola.

    If you don't know what Cartoonist Kayfabe is it is an amazing Youtube channel with Ed Piskor, Jim Rugg and Tom Scioli and they analyze different comics' art.

    Check it out:

    The title of this thread made it sound like there was a person named "Kayfabe Mignola" . . .

    This You Tube channel is the best place I have seen to learn about cartooning, and comic books, I could spend hours listening to Tom, Ed, and Jim talk about comics. I look forward to catching up on this one.

    Wrestling?

    Even if I knew anything about wrestling, I'd still assume "Kayfabe Mignola" was a single name.

    Better title may have been "Cartoonist Kayfabe Interview with Mignola".

    You're right it does mean fabrication, but in wrestling it means treating staged events as real

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kayfabe

    Ed & Jim are big wrestling fans and an ongoing theme they always talk about is the kayfabe that is in the comics industry especially in the 90's and the speculator boom and bust i.e. treating the value of X-Men #1 as something much more than it is as true when in actually it is barely worth more than cover price
