David Mack's Thoughts:
· "Brian and I met at the Chicago con over eight years ago and have been each other's best friends in the industry ever since. We've sort of learned a lot from each other and critique each others ideas and work long before they get published. We have different enough perspectives that it is a big help having another unique POV on your initial plans.
Here's something funny that you may not know: When I was writing the first Kabuki story in 1993, I was not interested in drawing or doing the art. I just wanted to be the writer.
I actually asked Bendis to draw Kabuki and he was going to. So I have these early Kabuki drawings that Bendis did.
Eventually I decided that I'd need to learn to draw it myself in order for the art to fit the organic and unconvential quality of my ridicualous script. So I had to figure out the art stuff on my own. But it sort of cracks me up to see these early Kabuki pages by Bendis. Especially since I'm now painting a DD story that he wrote." (February 7, 2001)
· "Brian and I met at the Chicago Convention. We were both doing creator owned comics thru Caliber and other publishers. At one point we were both signing at the Caliber table at the same time and introduced ourselves and showed each other our work and immediatly became friends and hung out together for the entire rest of the show. And at the show, he told me he was up for some pencilling gigs, and wanted me as his inker. So we began working that way as well and we were on the phone every week from then on. And we began critiquing each other's personal work as we developed it. This was hugely helpful and we each sort of shaped and informed the other in our early formative years. Brian's advice and POV opened up whole new worlds to me at that time, that enriched my approach to my storytelling. And I'd like to think I was as helpful to him in that regard." (December 8, 2003)
