Interview: Cullen Bunn talks Shadowman, future plans, and Godzilla vs. Power Rangers

Cullen, thank you for being on the AIPT Comics podcast. It seems fitting you’re here to talk Shadowman, you were on way back in March to talk about the first arc, and we are now embarking on the second story arc this week. What has the fan response been like so far?
Something about Shadowman that works is how it blends the superhero fighting and the horror elements too. Do you approach scripting in a different way to blend the two?
Issue 5 catches readers up on the story up top. How do you balance exposition and action in a way that feeds off each other?
PEDRO ANDREO joins the series with #5, was there a specific panel that blew your socks off?
Shadowman feels like it’s setting up a very long run, how far out have you plotted this story?
What can we expect from the Deadside War and how it affects the wider Valiant universe?
The horror movie homage variant is incredible, what are your thoughts on The Thing? JONATHAN MARKS BARRAVECCHIA
The Godzilla vs Mighty Morphin Power Rangers crossover is coming at IDW, firstly, how has this not happened yet?!
Where does your heart lie with PowerRangers and Godzilla specifically?
