A special “point one” episode where Kyle and Brian got to talk with RICO RENZI, the colorist of Marvel’s Radioactive Spider-Gwen and The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl!
In this episode, we talked with Rico about the increasing awareness of colorists as part of a creative team, adapting his approach for different artists, why he prefers print to digital, his favorite moments from the series so far, and a teaser hint or two on what’s coming up for the series. Rico also hooks Kyle up with some comic book recommendations!
This was a really fun and informative conversation for us – we hope that you enjoy it!
Stuff we talked about:
- The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl
- Marvel coloring books for adults
- Stela – comics for your phone
- The Private Eye

awesome questions for Rico. hearing Rico say, “no earth tones. neo-tokyo.” for Gwen made me go back and fully realize why i’m so drawn to my favorite comic. can’t wait for the next issue!
