In this month’s episode of Northern Spotlights, we sit down with Simon Donald, co-founder of the legendary British comic magazine VIZ.

Simon and his brother Chris launched VIZ from their bedroom in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, crafting what would become one of the UK’s most iconic humour publications. From selling the very first issue at just 15 years old to breaking onto TV screens and stepping into stand-up comedy, Simon shares the incredible twists and turns of his lively career - and the story behind VIZ's evolution.

Get ready for an engaging conversation filled with unforgettable stories, laughter, and insights you won’t want to miss!
