trying
We're trying to use it as an intervention.
both global hands publishers time
There are a lot of global decisions that you can make as a co-publisher, and only publishers can make those kind of decisions. At the same time, there are some things you can do only as a penciler or creator. I want to keep my hands in both pots, so to speak.
games love movies
What I love about WonderCon is that, while the focus is on the comics, it's also a celebration of games and movies and all the ancillary media.
amazon
Wonder Woman isn't even American; she's an Amazon princess.
Wonder Woman is a lot of fun to draw.
character trying want
I really want to try to explore the characters from angles you've never seen and keep them classic and iconic.
adversity thinking matter
Lois pursues the truth no matter what sort of adversity faces her. I think Superman sees that, and it's the same moral compass that he has from the Kents.
spirit kindred-spirit kindred
[Superman and Lois are] kindred spirits, and they always choose to do the right thing.
real kids thinking
There was a real sophistication and elegance to (Batman: The Animated Series). It certainly appealed to kids but had a depth that really made it fascinating and interesting to watch for adult fans. I think visually, it was stylistically stunning.
impact clarity sometimes
There's also a lot of punch you get from doing an extreme closeup and have it just be that image with nothing around it. There's a clarity and precision and impact there that you sometimes lose if you put everything else in that background.
records today labels
Alasdair Fraser's Culburnie Records has quietly become one of the best Celtic music labels today.
