What happens when two of the most expressive subcultures in pop culture collide? In Episode 509 of The Short Box, I sit down with Zach Norris—writer, comic shop manager at San Diego’s Now or Never Comics, and the creator behind the Hip-Hop and Comics zine series C.R.E.A.M. (Comics Rule Everything Around Me). 

Zach breaks down his journey from writing for The Hundreds, the hidden links between 80s NYC graffiti culture, hardcore punk, and early comic art, Comic Book Easter Eggs and references in Hip-hop lyrics, the comic artists behind some of rap's most iconic album covers, and shares behind-the-scenes stories from San Diego Comic-Con and advice for indie creators looking to get their self-published work onto comic shop shelves.
