Inkstuds is an ongoing podcast that got it’s start on CiTR radio out of UBC in Vancouver. Debuting in 2005 with a break from 2018 – 2026, Inkstuds has returned to continue to provide deep and meaningful conversation’s with comic creators, cartoonists and artists.
Hosted by Robin McConnell, Inkstuds seeks to engage with a diverse range of creators that reflects the identity of comics as an artform.
This space is also used to share Robin’s ongoing research into the history of Canadian comics.
This work is funded by the Canada Council for the Arts.
hey Robin,
Great show! i love every interview! keep em coming and I will continue to support!
I followed the post Nate Powell made on Facebook about his interview on here. Oddly enough I found that most of the comic book folks I’ve “friended” on Facebook have interviews here as well. Nate will always be my favorite, but I must say, as far as quality folks to interview goes, the absence of Kevin Huizenga, Cristy C. Road, & Dame Darcy is regrettable (to say the least). James O’Barr should have a bit of space on here as well. If it weren’t for him I might have never sought out indie comics (then again, if I hadn’t read The Crow after the movie came out I probably could have avoided being absolutely miserable listening to Joy Division every single night afterwords… Or at least I would have had another 5 or 10 happy years before they came to the attention of the every day folks again).
Sorry for rambling. Blame it on the Adderall.

P.S…. I love that you have a mixtape section. To me, knowing what an artist/writer is listening to can give as much insight into their work as what they read, and most comic blogs I’ve come across don’t tend to stray much from the interviewing format already established by the mainstream press. So, thank you for that.
This show is awesome! I look forward to going through the archives. Thanks so much.
Hey! I just discovered this site through Simon Hanselmann’s tumblr, and I’m currently going back and listening to every old episode you’ve uploaded. Thanks for doing such an awesome show!
thanks man!
