Ep277 - Jim Demonakos & Kevin Konrad Hanna on ‘Hellboy’ Doc ‘Mike Mignola - Drawing Monsters’

Jim Demonakos, founder of Seattle’s annual Emerald City Comicon, met Kevin Konrad Hanna, an artist and film director, at the annual event. Two lifelong comic book fans, the duo tried a handful of projects together until something hit, a documentary about Hellboy creator Mike Mignola. In ‘Mike Mignola: Drawing Monsters,’ Jim and Kevin uncover the story behind Mignola, as told from icons like Neil Gaiman, Doug Jones, Victor LaValle, Adam Savage, Patton Oswalt, and Guillermo del Toro, among others. In this interview, the directors talk rock star comic book creators, thinking of yourself as a storyteller not a filmmaker, opening the door for subject conversations, the entrepreneur mindset, and how their Kickstarter campaign raised over $500,000 from a $58,000 goal.
