26 - Gregory Suicide - An Interview with Eric Grissom and Will Perkins Bonus Episode

Summary: Bonus episode talking to Eric Grissom and Will Perkins about their book Gregory Suicide, published by Dark Horse Comics. It was really interesting to speak to Eric and Will about the inspiration from this science fiction graphic novel, working together and the development process of the book. As always we break off into a few tangents and have a few laughs and lot of fun talking to these talented and great guys. Both Chris and I really enjoyed this book and is a great self-contained science fiction thriller, with an epic feeling of a much bigger world. Gregory Suicide Summary: An obsolete A.I. program known as Gregory wakes in an unfamiliar world and is haunted by the memories of his past lives, each ending in death by his own hand. On the path to discovering the truth about himself, Gregory slips into the trenches of two opposing forces: the deadly A.I. who replaced him and a group of humans who want to destroy him and all his kind. In the end, Gregory must choose a side in the coming revolution and the key to everything may lie in the strange visions he has between life and death. Set in a dystopian future, the thought-provoking science fiction explored in the the book's 144 pages brings to mind the likes of Blade Runner, Looper, and Westworld. Rather than merely relying on genre tropes, Gregory Suicide uses the vivid aesthetic as a backdrop to a universal story about human struggle. You can order directly through Eric or Will's sites, or Amazon: Eric: http://www.ericgrissom.com Will: https://www.willperkinscomics.com Amazon: https://amzn.to/2LbUtpR You could also get a free prologue and view the trailer on: http://www.gregorysuicide.com.  Also you can check out Eric's excellent Old Doctor Who Show Podcast on https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/doctor-who-the-old-doctor-who-show/id955834332?mt=2. UK listener?
