Big Numbers with Paul Jenkins

June 25, 2026 · 1 h 1 min

Show notes

Writer Paul Jenkins (The Sentry, Inhumans) joins us to talk about Big Numbers, Alan Moore’s unfinished masterpiece with artist Bill Sienkievicz.


Paul actually worked on Big Numbers as an editor early on in his career, and he has stories to tell. What happened with Big Numbers that led to it being unfinished? How far along did Alan Moore get before the project was abandoned? And is it true that replacement artist Al Columbia actually destroyed the art for Big Numbers #4? Paul discusses it all in a pretty incredible interview that you will not want to miss.
