## Resource

On this episode Matt and returning special guest co-Night Man enthusiast A. Lee Martinez (author of THE AUTOMATIC DETECTIVE, THE LAST ADVENTURE OF CONSTANCE VERITY, and the upcoming UNBEARABLE) befriend one another after being exiled for preaching the forbidden word of 1997's DEVIL DINOSAUR SPRING FLING. So, as it turns out Lee is a huge fan of Devil Dinosaur and as it also turns out, this random one-shot from 1997 exists. Seeing an opportunity to once again talk to his favorite author while not straying out of the 90's safe space that this show inhabits, Matt eagerly brought Lee back on. Here's the thing: Matt has no idea what in the world(s) a Devil Dinosaur is (and don't even get him started on Moon-Boy). Until this apparent "spring fling", Matt had never read a comic featuring Devil Dinosaur. So with a lot that he needed to learn ahead... ...Matt promptly makes Lee spend roughly the first 30ish minutes of the show diving deep on nerdy talk about writing processes, the too high premium put on "original stories" (spoiler alert: there really are none), and what a writer's relationship to their own ideas should be. And THEN...they talk about the comic! It's no surprise that Lee makes one heck've a Devil Dinosaur pitchman, but you'll have to listen to the episode to hear that. So what are you waiting for? Even though he doesn't need my help to sell books, everyone should read everything Lee has written: https://aleemartinez.com/ And while you're at it, you should preorder Lee's newest novel UNBEARABLE: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Unbearable/A-Lee-Martinez/9781668073452 Follow Lee on BlueSky: @aleemartinez.bsky.social Contact the show: doesthiscomeinchromium@gmail.com Follow Matt on BlueSky: @mattbegins.bsky.social Intro music from the song "Doin' What We Do"…
