(Ep 457): Can a Comic Book Teach You Civil War History?

In this latest episode of Storycomic Presents, I’m thrilled to welcome back Marek Bennett to talk about Freeman Colby Vol. 4, now in progress and due summer 1864. Marek walks us through how he transforms Civil War diaries, letters, and sketches into vivid graphic storytelling—from Cold Harbor to the Siege of Petersburg and the Battle of the Crater. We’ll also revisit previous volumes, the mix of live‑draw comic demos, and how his award-winning blend of comics, music, and history inspires both readers and classrooms.
The Title sequence was designed and created by Morgan Quaid.
