I’ve run into Jim Hill on various occasions around town. I was pretty excited when I saw his project on kickstarter and thought he would be a great person to talk with. The Dead Don’t Die is a zombie western graphic novel that Jim is working on as part of his thesis at PNCA. I…

Just before Danny left for Sundance, I was fortunate enough to talk with him. He’s a talented artist who tells some interesting stories and funny jokes. Uh oh, security… Let’s go for a walk in the rain…
