The Felix Comic Art Podcast

We're back! Thank you all for your patience during our break. But I believe with my latest guest, Ken Viola, that the wait was worth it. What drives this podcast more than anything are the collector stories. Having been a collector since the 1950s, it's safe to say that Ken has witnessed and experienced more than most in this hobby. Not many can say they were friends with Steve Ditko, or got to hang Frank Frazetta's Egyptian Queen painting in their parents' home, or can lay claim to being the OG Alan Moore art collector.
