Buddy Beaudoin Returns to Talk CORVUS, Grief, Gaming, and Sci-Fi Horror – Comic Crusaders Podcast #683
The creator and comic book letterer returns to break down the collected edition of Corvus, his emotionally charged space horror graphic novel from Dead Sky Publishing.
Buddy Beaudoin is back on the Comic Crusaders Podcast, and this conversation goes way deeper than spaceships and monsters. With CORVUS: The Collected Edition now available from Dead Sky Publishing, Buddy joins Al Mega to talk about grief as a survival language, gaming as emotional escape, the power of a reluctant Black nerd hero in science fiction, and how psychological horror can be built not just through art, but through pacing, silence, lettering, and emotional truth. The book follows Daryn Dall, a grieving young gamer who gets dragged into a galactic war he never asked for and discovers that pain can make you powerful — but it can also make you vulnerable to forces that know exactly how to break you. With art by Christopher Sassman and Rebecca Sotira, and colors by Allison Hu, Corvus is the kind of creator-owned comic that brings spectacle and substance to the same fight.
In this episode, Buddy opens up about building Daryn as a different kind of sci-fi lead, moving from lettering major titles into creator-owned storytelling, and why Corvus had to be emotionally raw to work. This one is for readers who love horror with heart, sci-fi with teeth, and comics that know survival is never just physical.
