Arie Kaplan is an award winning author, having an incredible body of work that goes into television, books, comic books video games and even trading cards. It was though the latter and a chance tweet that helped us crossed paths, as Kaplan wrote the text for the back of the Topps ‘Journey of the Child’ set that was released in April of this year. Kaplan was kind enough to give me some time to talk about how his career has come together, how he approaches all the different mediums and how he got to be a part of the phenomenon that is ‘The Child.’
