Is it time to sunset some of these franchises that continually crank out rehashed content? Maybe. Is it time to put a spotlight on creators who are writing fresh stories? Definitely! Today's episode discusses two franchises: Star Wars and Jurassic Park. We talk about the pros and cons of continuing to create stories for these two world. We also intersperse interviews with creators who are laboring away to create beautiful, new world for reader and moviegoers to enjoy.
