Episode 561 – Evan Quiring, creator of Lucha Mystery and Murder City Devil

Published on: 22nd September, 2025

In this episode, we dive into the creative journey of Evan — from punk rock roots to comic books. We trace his early inspirations like The Big Snit at National Film Board of Canada and The Cat Came Back, Sergio Aragonés, Mort Drucker, the training he got through the Manitoba Society of Independent Animators and the Joe Kubert School, his punk rock roots of the Ramones and the Sex Pistols and his early bands.

We also discuss tablets versus paper, blue line work, and some talk on the music of 60’s Spider-Man.

About your hosts

Sean McGinity

Hi, I am Sean "SeanGeek" McGinity. And I am a geek. For me, the definition of the word geek comes from liking something so much, that I deep dive into it. Not just consuming it... but becoming it. I "geek out". Everything started with comics. I read them and studied them with a fine eye, and then started making my own. Since then, I have "geeked out" on movies (Star Wars The Evil WIthin, Hurt), music writing, recording, and performing (The Classic Embers and Dome), writing (the Symka comic and the upcoming Intuitives novel), and now... this Podcast.

Todd McGinity

Hey guys, SeanGeek here. Just to be clear, this is me geeking out on Todd "FastFretFingers" McGinity here. Todd is the GOAT. My brother is an established musician, mastering the Fretboard with a blistering discipline. If there was a guitar style, tone, pitch... Todd would find a way to replicate it. From his early days mastering Van Halen and Rush, his musical palate has expanded with forays into classical and flamenco, hard rock, blues and pop. From live performances to learning the recording process, when it comes to music, he has done it all.

Karen Bee

A lover of stories, beer, and cats, and a master of none. Catch me talking to Geek Boy every so often for the latest comic book TV show or movie, Star Wars, board games and other things cool. Hear me give my two cents, relate them to other things I know, and make other recommendations!
