- Myself
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
There's nothing that compares with the time spent all by myself on a creation that is all my own. I still think of my solo work as my 'home planet' in comics, though I've learned to listen much more to editors and trusted friends for feedback.
- Made
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The comics I made from 1990 to 1997 were largely based in vaguely urban, vaguely dystopic settings because that was my reference point for comics storytelling in general.
- Being
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I love trying to forge a contract between creator and audience in which we are able to meet halfway, each injecting a part of our own experiences into a story that's being told.
- Farther
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
We all accept the visual shorthand used throughout comics: if something's farther away, it'll be drawn with a thinner, simpler line, eventually leaving out most visual information and becoming a gesture, a skeletal representation of a thing.
- Politics
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My sense of politics and justice was deeply shaped in adolescence by my involvement with the underground punk - rock scene, and though lots of social and political issues had come forth in my comics, it wasn't until my late 20s that I felt properly equipped to address certain issues of race, power, and violence in my work.
- Centers
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My narrative style centers around intimate, highly subjective depictions of personal experience and internal landscapes. In 'March,' everything fell into place as soon as I began identifying strongly with John Lewis as a young boy and saw how we shared the same kind of gravity and intensity as youngsters.
- Drawing
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
There are constant challenges in the drawing process, especially in a period piece, and therein lay the fun.
- Life
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Comics creators are generally screwed in life: Most of us who are fortunate enough to do comics full time - which is very few of us - will literally draw until we die because we have no employment structures intact for retirement, much less insurance!
- Learning
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
As a visual storyteller, a lot is learning what to include so you're not being redundant between images and text.
- Never
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Power, privilege, and violence are not, and never were, strictly Southern issues in America.
- Generation
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Kids have always play-fought, but I think my generation had a particularly privileged cultural fantasy surrounding military violence.
