From breakout creator-owned hits like Spencer & Locke and Going to the Chapel to major work for Marvel and beyond, David Pepose has built a career on high-concept storytelling with plenty of heart, humor, and momentum. On this episode, David joins the Bandits to look back at the path that took him from comics journalism into writing, the lessons he learned breaking in through creator-owned work, and how his approach has evolved as he’s moved between independent projects and established characters. The conversation also dives into his current work on Space Ghost and Speed Racer, including the challenge of honoring beloved characters while finding fresh ways to make them feel urgent for modern readers. Along the way, David discusses collaboration, reinvention, and what continues to excite him about telling stories across such different corners of the comics industry.
