Complete Megaton Man Interviews and Podcasts

There's been a flurry of promotional interviews and a podcast or two in relation to The Complete Megaton Man Volume I: The 1980s, which collects all the Kitchen Sink Megaton Man titles (series, mini-series, and one-shots) into a single 608-page volume (Volume II will collect the 1990s Fiasco Comics Bizarre Heroes). While the immediate hype was for a Zoop crowdfunder for the exclusive hardcover edition of Volume I (which has now closed), the book is just going to press, and there will also be a softcover edition released through Fantagraphics' usual distribution channels (bookstores and local comics shops).

Here are links to the interviews and podcasts:
