I still love a lot of the guys who just paint

Comics are really my life blood in a lot of respects

Like Godfather, you look at a movie like that, or something that James Gray has directed, a film with minimal or pin lighting as opposed to everything being lit bright and flat, where everything is evident

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

So there's kind of a simultaneous aspect to pushing the boundaries, and being very safe

Especially with Elektra, because I'm doing a lot of the covers for the new version of Elektra.

And that, to me, is the main attraction to comics. It's an avenue to say what you want to say
