Matt Fraction is known for his incredible work on titles like “Hawkeye” and “Sex Criminals,” but today, we talk about his new acclaimed Batman run with Jorge Jimenez, and life at 50.

It’s always fun to catch up with Matt. I’m especially grateful to hear he is back to full health after a scary brush with covid and hospitalization. We discuss life changes at 50 and I am energized by his joy for writing.

If you haven’t started the Batman comic yet, don’t delay. You can also catch up on his ongoing comic Adventureman with Terry Dodson.

I’m grateful to share in conversations with friends like Matt and would like to continue on this journey. My favor as usual is to please continue to share this podcast with others. It would mean so much if you also rate it and leave me feedback.
