Bonus Episode 10 – Interview with Dirk Tiede
September 29th, 2009 — 8:27pm
Had a great interview with Dirk Tiede at NYAF mostly about his original comic/webmanga, “Paradigm Shift.” The story begins as a cop drama – or something resembling one – and transforms into a werewolf… um story. Sorry about the terrible pun. I just couldn’t help myself.
I bought the first two books (out of the trilogy) and found the story to be both fun and suspenseful. I recommend you check it out 
You can read the entire story as a webmanga and if you like it, please don’t hesitate to leave comments, or even buy the books!
I’ll try to do a full writeup when I finish the 3rd book’s story (on the web since it’s not yet released as of this writing). See you next week ^_^
