Today's show: Comic book writers

Today's Strip! at 5pm on Resonance FM is comprised of three interviews with comic book writers...

In a repeat of Monday's clear spot, Alex Fitch interviews renowned author Neil Gaiman about the big screen adaptation of his illustrated novel Stardust which was originally serialised by DC Comics.
