The Montreal arts & entertainment podcast that asks Boum (the comic book artist and creator of The Jellyfish): What is something that you’re really good at that nobody knows about? That question asked by our previous guest Raquel Maestre back in episode 294.

Anyone who listens to us over on 9ES knows that I’m a huge fan of comic books. I have read a lot of comics in my time from mainstream comics to small indie zines. So it’s with at least some degree of authority that I can tell you that “The Jellyfish” by Boum is one of the best books I’ve read in a very long time. Sarah (who is co-hosting this episode) doesn’t read nearly as many comics as I do but she is also sometimes harder to please – so it’s a double recommendation that Sarah enjoyed “The Jellyfish” so much that she wants to re-read it again after blasting through the entire thing in a single sitting.

We were extremely lucky to sit down with Boum at the back of our usual haunt Grumpy’s to talk about “The Jellyfish”, comic books, the Quebec health care system, animation and eyesight. This is an extremely fun episode so sit back and enjoy!

If you’re in Montreal you’ll have two chances to meet up with Boum (and hopefully get yourself a signed copy of “The Jellyfish” in the process) – this May 9th at Drawn and Quarterly MTL and the weekend of May 24-26 at the Montreal Comic Arts Festival.
