Immigration confuses and terrifies me, so why not try to write a comic and make some sense of it?

After 9/11, I knew I wanted to write about power and identity and the way Americans on all sides of the political spectrum often mythologize our leaders, which are themes that the superhero genre has always handled really well.

Print and digital comics will always coexist.

There are a lot of differing opinions on that. Some people think you should change out more, but I think changing just 20 percent is less stressful on the aquarium and fish. Once you get used to the regimen, it's pretty easy.

Every issue, the characters and I duke it out. They usually win.

The appealing thing about comics: There literally is no budget in comics. You're only limited by your imagination.
