About this episode
You may know George R.R. Martin as the writer of the epic fantasy series A Song of Ice and Fire, which was adapted into the HBO series Game of Thrones. But long before becoming a world-renowned science fiction and fantasy writer, George R.R. Martin was just a kid in Bayonne, New Jersey, who read a LOT of comics. Lorraine and Evan chatted with George on last week’s episode—but there was so much more to talk about! In this final bonus episode, George speaks more about his early days as an avid Marvel reader, his engagement with the fanzine community as a teen, and the lasting impression that Marvel stories have left on his life and work. Plus, he reads one of his early letters to Marvel!
