Graphic Novel Apostle

Graphic Novel Apostle Mark Ohrenberger embarks upon his mission to share great stories from comics and graphic novels with his friends who don't read comics. Will any become Graphic Novel Disciples? We'll see!

The Graphic Novel Apostle Podcast will focus primarily on comic books and original graphic novels from outside the superhero genre: Crime Noir, Horror, Spy Thrillers, Adventure, Supernatural, Comedy, Westerns, Sci-Fi, Slice of Life, and so much more.

We'll cover stories from publishers like Image Comics, Boom! Studios, Dark Horse Comics, Oni Press, AWA, Aftershock, Mad Cave, IDW, and others. And who are we kidding? We'll get into some Marvel and DC books from time to time as well.
