Damian Fulton Interview x Radical Rick Unboxing

Legendary artist, illustrator and creative director, Damian Fulton sat down for an interview about his iconic comic strip Radical Rick! We also talk about what got him into art, his inspiration and style of art and a lot more. I also got a mystery box of Radical Rick goodies sent by Damion Hickman which we did an unboxing to. Check out the video to see what was inside.

It was a great honor to have the opportunity to interview Damian. The Radical Rick comic strip was just as major as any Marvel or DC comic in my eyes. And I think it’s awesome that Damian is doing new and creative things with the Radical Rick brand and legacy.!

ABOUT RADICAL RICK:

In a nutshell, Radical Rick is simply a humble BMX loving kid who’s irresistibly drawn into “rad” situations because of an over productive rad gland. His story began in comicstrip form in 1979, stretched over the course of 13 years in BMX Plus! Magazine, and then was picked up in reruns for another 5 years in the 2000s.

A someone who refuses to miss an opportunity for radness, Rick has competed in every major BMX championship (usually winning when not interrupted by the nefarious forces of Mean Inc.), battled crazed Ayatollahs and overzealous schoolmarms, survived man-eating sharks and giant meat grinders, loaned his services to the US military, and always managed to get the girl.

ABOUT DAMIAN FULTON:

Damian Fulton launched his art career as a cartoonist and illustrator creating counterculture comic strips like “The Shred Brothers” and “Radical Rick”, and painting surf posters for Ocean Pacific. After doing time at Ogilvy & Mather Advertising as Senior Partner Creative Director, and Marvel Productions as VP Head of Creative Development, he’s returned to his first love with a vengeance.
