It's interesting, because in the corporate stuff there's a dichotomy there, depending on the creator. Even what, in essence, may be a very safe corporate approach, there is some stuff that is allowed to be pushed

To me, that's one of the things that I love about doing this stuff. One day I can work on this piece in watercolor, and then work on something else on the computer, or work on something else that's a completely different approach

For a while I felt very alone; sort of out there in the world of comics, especially here in the States

I want to say 90% of stuff out there is just crap that got made. The main point is that it got produced.

If somebody can inspire me, it feels really special

People who can pull you in and take you on a journey, as opposed to simply adding flash. Again, that feels very clinical, and I don't respond to that the way I used to

And within the world that you've created, the physics of that world have to remain constant; they can't be amorphous and changing.
