Great stuff. Just finished listening to your chat with John's Longbox - takes me back to my own comic reading days as a teen in the 80s. Just like hanging out at a comic shop or with my comic reading mates. Cheers Mark, never change!

Mark has caught the Bluey bug! Yes! Happy to see this convo. Many have no idea how significant Jimmy P was to the Big 2 from Marvel Knights to Jonah Hex to even The Punisher game on PS2. Thanks for your services Mr. P!
"We need a sense of security to create" -Palmiotti at 1hr 27min -good luck... We are not allowed to improve how we live and cooperate in places like the former-USA for going on twenty-five years now -and you dont want to point that out as something that could be related to why we have the same creative people in the past thirty years? The only 'advancement' in tech is limiting the internet to a tiny screen that is used to gossip, hate, alienate, and base everything on DEI scores.
Mark please look into Eric July’s actual business decisions. He is completely over his skies. He has no idea what he is doing. His books are also horrible and unimaginative.
As a consume, I want more millar worlds. Where a great writer hires the best artist. Not TH-camrs that scream into microphones hiring the cheapest talent.
Jimmy exactly told everything he did and it is the exact opposite compared to the Marvel of today! Anybody from Marvel listening? Fire all your woke editors and hire people who care about the characters the history of Marvel and good art and storytelling instead. Hire the best guys and not choose gender or skin color. Just DO IT!
Never seen a video interview of Jimmy Palmiotti before (only remember reading Wizard interviews back in the day) - what a nice guy!
Jimmy is such a great guest!! Another great conversation Mark

Loved his Jonah Hex and his Hawkman was one of my favorite runs of the character. Reread them each at least once a year.
Jimmy was one of the nicest guys I met at Heroes Con a few months ago! Looking forward to this conversation.
I look forward to checking out Palmiotti's & Gray's JONAH HEX. Solid interview, Mark. Thank ye.
It is great. Read it!
What a great way to spend some time. What a nice conversation! Thank you! 🙏🏻
Mark has caught the Bluey bug! Yes!

Excited to see what Mr. Palmiotti has in store for us with gunslinger spawn!!
Another great interview!
Millar Time is back!
Great guest. Love Palmiotti. Met him at MCM few years ago. Great guy. Amanda did a sketch in my The Pro book unexpectedly 😊
I see Jimmy has The Pro prominently displayed there. That is one of my favorite books of all time and I feel that it is woefully underrated.
The Great Jimmy P! If no one has told you, THANK YOU for the great stories.
Thank you my friend.
Could not have timed that more perfectly, was just looking for something to listen while I worked.
Thanks for the video Mark. Love hearing these stories of guys who kept grinding up the ranks in the industry.
X-O #0 is my favorite cover of all time! ❤❤❤
Love listening to JImmy and this is a great view into the man.
Great interview, looking forward to your next one.
You need too get Amanda Conner on next.
YES!!!!
Love his philosophy!
Ya boi Zack sent me!
The Dark Age 75-95 was the best age. Not sure if Dark is the right name for it.

"you know, with Hitler, the more I learn about that guy… the more I don't care for him."
could you tell me the address of Millarworld Limited or Mark Millar?
Mark, for the love of God! Please get a proper microphone!!
