This week on War Rocket Ajax, Matt and I sit down with the multitalented Carly Monardo for a talk about her work on Venture Bros., the VHS aesthetic she brought to her covers for the Dr. McNinja paperbacks, and how her latest creation (with Kate Beaton and Meredith Gran), the Strong Female Characters, came about.

Plus, we finally get around to an in-depth discussion of both of this summer’s major crossovers — including us bickering over Flashpoint like a married couple — and what might just be the Biggest Ups To All My Haters Ever!
