Episode 10 - From Tossed Salads to Scrambled Eggs, with Katie Lane
Episode 10
Tuesday, 30 September, 2025
This past spring, cartoonist Katie Lane had two books come out right at the same time: Single Camera Sitcom (Comics Blogger Books) and Girls Gone Wild #1 (2DCloud). In both works, Katie explores the struggles at the heart of our most intimate relationships and choices, with wit and sensitivity and candor. But the first thing the reader is likely to notice is the extreme visual shift from one book to the next. Single Camera Sitcom, composed between 2019 and 2022, relies on bright digital collage and a variety of textual levels to tell a post-college picaresque. Girls Gone Wild #1, composed in 2025, unspools its more claustrophobic stories in spidery text and inky figure drawings. It was a pleasure to have Katie on to chat about both of these works, how they were made, and what inspired such a radical change in her approach to cartooning. Thanks as always to Jason Butler for producing the episode! And thanks to Katie's friend Walter for providing the theme from Single Camera Sitcom, which you can hear at the end of the episode.
