Eisner Winning Comics Writer John Allison Interview - The Great British Bump Off: Kill Or Be Quilt

What do you get when you cross a beloved British baking competition show and an Agatha Christie-like mystery? The Great British Bump-Off! John Allison joins Jimmy to talk about the 4 issue series he wrote with artist Max Sarin. John talks about the development of the series, being a fan of The Great British Bake Off, and why after writing the series he doesn't think he can watch the show anymore. Jimmy and John discuss the things they do to replenish the well of creativity and John chats about his early exposure to US sitcoms. This all leads to talk about John and Max's follow-up The Great British Bump-Off: Kill or Be Quilt, out April 9th from Dark Horse Comics. The title was something John had on hand for some time until he realized it could be the perfect sequel for the further adventures of Shauna Wickle. Listen as Jimmy learns from John how the quilting and comic industry are fairly similar, including quilting conventions! 

The Great British Bump-Off: Kill or Be Quilt From the Publisher A new cozy mystery from Giant Days’ John Allison and Max Sarin following up to their hit baking murder mystery The Great British Bump-Off.

And to make things worse, she’s about to find out how ruinously expensive a hastily-tied knot can be…
