Episode description

Step into the futuristic world of Vitalerium with author and creator Nicholas Keating Casbarro. In this episode of This Comic Cooks, we explore how a cross-country flight inspired an entire sci-fi universe, now spanning novels, comics, and more.


Nicholas reveals how he brought the world of Vitalerium: Descent into the Void to life—crafting rich characters like Roman Matthews and Darok Ferris Benson, balancing philosophical themes with action-packed storytelling, and turning his sci-fi saga into a powerful comic book adaptation.


We talk about:


  • Building a universe at 36,000 feet

  • Adapting a novel into a visual comic experience

  • How world-building reflects modern-day society

  • The creative process of independent creators

  • Tips for aspiring sci-fi storytellers
