Alright all that stuff aside lets get to the meat of the interview:
What do you do when not making comics?
Tattoo people with drawings that I do based on what they want...usually something I come up with leaning usually to the evil and creepy side of life. Play with my son Gage Dangerous and spend time with my beautiful wife Faith.
Favorite TV Shows past and present?
V, Twin Peaks, X-files, Heroes, True Blood, Monsters, A-Team, Most Evil, G.I. Joe, He-Man, Ren and Stimpy, Chapelle Show, Family Guy, Spawn Animated, Liquid Television, South Park, Cops, Batman Animated Series, Teen Titans, Clone Wars, Charmed, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Star Trek TNG, Deep Space Nine, I could keep going....
Stranded on a deserted island you get one
comic to read for 5 years. What is it (trades are allowed)?youngblood #1............................................just kidding. Swamp Thing...any of the Alan Moore, Bissette, Totleben stuff.
When you were 10 what were you for Halloween?
Zombie...I think.
Favorite Music when you were 6, 16 and 26?
Micheal Jackson's Thriller, Red Hot Chili Peppers, White Zombie/Rob Zombie
Back to comic stuff for now. Knowing that Iceman is the greatest hero of all time, why do you think he is so underused?
Um, maybe because it's easier to identify with the rage and anger of Wolverine over the ability to make it cold or freeze things like Iceman.
If you were to make a comic about the life of a Pimp, circa 1980 in New York Times Square, what would his name be and sell me on a quick pitch? Go!
PIMPOPHILIA: all of new york is dead from a zombie plague.....what little of mankind is left is haunted, hungry and horney. It's up to one man "Bad Brotherman Matches" to make sure that his fellow man has the pussy he needs to keep their spirit for survival strong. Even if its dead pussy. It's a dismal world but somebodies gotta fuck it. End of pitch. lol
We all know you kick ass drawing monsters? But was it your first choice comic wise? In other words as a kid did you draw something, hate it, put red all over it and realize that Zombies were the way to go?
Hmmm....I drew a lot of my own mutants. I was a huge fan of X-men so I made up vigilantes and such but it wasn't till Spawn came out that I was like this is the shit! Creepy heroes are for me!
Where is the real money at in comic creating?
Selling independent properties to corporations etc. and being Joe Quesada.
When your making comics whats going on around you? Music, what kind? Silence? TV on?
Everything and anything, usually metal....death metal....or cartoons.
10 years from now. Where do you see me at in my career of a headless journalist?
Ever seen Futurama? I see a glass jar full of green bubbly liquid in your future.
10 years from now. Where do you see yourself?
Rich from the the Living Corpse!
