WTF: MARC MARON starting weekly comic with TONY MOORE

Get it? WTF? Marc Maron? Eh, whatever. So! A weekly Marc Maron comic. Somewhere, under the cloak of work clothes, Rendar Frankenstein is poppin’ an appreciable erection at this news. As Resident Marcaholic, I imagine he will be happy to get his fix of the comedian in all sorts of different mediums. Or maybe I’m fucking wrong.

Tony Moore has drawn zombies, militant popes, dead presidents and alien invaders, but now he’s tackling a subject even more challenging: Marc Maron.

Moore announced he’s collaborating with the popular comedian/podcast host on a series of one-panel comics based on episodes of IFC’s Maron (the cable refers to them as “recaps”). Installments will be released concurrently with new episodes, which debut Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET/PT.

Moore is best known for his action work in The Walking DeadDear Agent and his recent run on Deadpool, but this new weekly strip shows off a different side. The artist has been off the comics radar going on a year now — his last new work was May 2013′s Deadpool #6 — so it’s nice to see Moore back and do something different (and funny). [Robot 6]
