Marc Guggenheim is a writer and producer who may be best known in nerd circles as the co-creator of the DC Comics inspired TV shows Arrow and DC’s Legends of Tomorrow. For almost a decade his creations laid the foundation for a comic book based multiverse of television shows unlike anything seen before them. When the pandemic hit in 2020 and production abruptly ceased on all television programming, Guggenheim took the opportunity to develop several ideas he’d had lingering around and turn them them into comic book properties. The last several months have seen the release of many of those projects: two from Image Comics (Torrent and Too Dead To Die) and two from Dark Horse Comics (Fragmentation and Last Flight Out). This week on the Part-Time Fanboy Podcast, Kristian chats with Mr. Guggenheim about each of the different books that have come out, how the Dark Knight Returns seems to have inspired a running thread between some of them, and why themes of family and families in jeopardy seem to be present in much of the work that he developed during the early days of the pandemic!

Part-Time Fanboy. Full-Time obsession on a Part-Time schedule.
