Curiously Drawn

Chris McCrudden

Author Chris McCrudden talks about his very 1980s, magic-and-kindness heavy choices - Princess Adora's Archer and Illusionist himbo friend; King Comics' 1920s magician turned adoptive dad and Defender of the Earth; and a little-remembered kindly old utopian scientist, voiced by Peter Ustinov. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Mary O'Connell

Stand up comedian & writer Mary O'Connell talks about her choices - a nuclear war survivor Vampire girl with fabulous hair (who is occasionally an Emo boy voiced by Donald Glover), an Elvis style womaniser dealing with 90s feminism, and a chaotic pair of lovable antagonists who love dragging up and hanging out with their talking cat, and may or may not be doing it in their hot air balloon. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Laura Howell

Beano & Manga artist Laura Howell talks to me about her choices - a boy who turns into a pig and has the world's worst sense of direction, the big, blue, incredibly late 90s culmination of Warner Bros' Spielberg-led postmodern kids show era, and - representing the recent sexy trend of 'hyper-capable male love interests to wackier, schlubbier women' - Japan's favourite former Yakuza turned suburban Househusband. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Ella Watts

Audio producer and director Ella Watts talks about her choices - a tragic anime military alchemist, a revolutionary warrior woman who is also a lesbian marriage in herself and an antarctic badass waterbending mom friend. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Jack Bernhardt

Comedy writer and podcaster Jack Bernhardt talks about his very PTSD Riddled choices - a lonely, grumpy one eyed mutant who thinks she's an alien, a grieving, out-of-her-depth 19-year-old trying to hold the remaining scraps of her family together and a yodellin' cowgirl with a tragic, traumatic past and decades worth of claustrophobia. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
