Chris Schweizer is a three-time Eisner Award nominated cartoonist, a writer, concept artist and illustrator who lives in rural Kentucky with his wife, daughter, two cats and a long legged dog. He also supplied me with a gigantic list of his previous jobs, but now he makes comics.
In our conversation we hear about how Chris got into being a comic artist, why he doesn’t get to do much HEMA, how he used to fight in bars for money, and a Monty Python connection.
Over the past year, Chris has been going around museums drawing pictures of swords. He has put these together into a book, A Dream of Swords, which has an introduction by friend of the podcast, <a href='https://swordschool.shop/blogs/podcast/episode-69-swashbuckling-with-sebastien-de-castell'>Sebastian de Castell</a>. You can support Chris’s kickstarter, which runs until 10th October 2024: <a href='https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/schweizer/a-dream-of-swords'>https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/schweizer/a-dream-of-swords</a>.
The book is a collection of 100 monotone watercoloured drawings of swords from museums in Paris, London, and New York. There will also be original artworks, prints, and digital versions available. Check it out!
