Episode 217 :: Bringing Rain of the Ghosts to Life With Greg Weisman & Eric Lopez

In the world of dramatic television animation there's few creators as revered as Greg Weisman. Chances are good you know his work: Gargoyles, Young Justice, Star Wars Rebels, or perhaps you hung out with us last year for the Greg Weismanathon when we watched over 8 hours of Weisman-penned cartoons. Enter: Rain of the Ghosts - a creator-owned project, and a startling new world that need your help if it's to come to life.

Rain of the Ghosts is a novel series following the paranormal adventures of Rain Cacique, an island girl in a tourist town where all is not what it seems. Two out of the proposed nine books are out and now Greg is crowdfunding the creation of an audioplay featuring an insane cast of 20 actors - from Demona (Marina Sirtis) to Darkwing Duck (Jim Cummings). Join Cap and Tony as they discuss the novel series and the audioplay with Greg and voice actor Eric Lopez, aka Young Justice's Blue Beetle.

We also hear about Greg's experience working on Star Wars Rebels, his current comic series Kanan: The Last Padawan, as well as Eric's favorite current comics, how he got the gig voicing Blue Beetle, and what would happen if Greg was given supreme comic dominion.
