So cartooning, for me, is an honorable thing. It's pushing the envelope. It's the truth of something through exaggeration

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

I wanted to learn how to paint rather than just doing black-and-white work

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

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

I was lucky enough to be given books that weren't top sellers; books that were kind of under the radar

But I'm aware of the fact that I'm working in a commercial venue where I'm producing something that I wouldn't normally be approaching the way I'm doing it
