Re: MACK! a question about your Jinx introduction

In Response To: MACK! a question about your Jinx introduction (bunso212)

: you said that later on you would tell a story about some
: of the times you and Bendis spent together. Like every
: time you are together its like a Seinfeld episode. any
: stories?

Plenty of stories. I'm sure I'll find a format for them eventually. We met in 93 at a con in Chicago. And since then we did a lot of cons together, taveled together, shared hotel rooms and after-con mis-adventures with people we met at the cons. Most of this was when people were still figuring out who we were. We were touring to build a readership and traveling on a shoestring budget. We did a conmplet signing tour of the west coast in both 96 and 97 with Greg Horn and James Hudnel. Form LA, San Diego, Bay area to Vegas. There were a lot of great stories in that alone.

: Also I was wondering, I ask this question on the bendis
: board. and I asked him how is was to work with you on
: daredevil.

Yeah, I saw your post there.

So I'm wondering, how was it to work with
: him? What were the high points, what were the low
: points (if any) How was it to work someone else's
: script, that someone being your long time friend
: bendis. Alright just wondering. thanks for your time.

Of course it was a great thing for us to finally do a high profile project together. We had fooled around on some other jobs in our youth to get some paychecks (usually me inking Bendis' pencils if you can believe that), so it was nice to be able to work on a project worthy of our friendship. It was something that each of us wanted to express based on feelings from our own childhood.

We had really learned a lot about the storytelling craft from each other in our formative years (we really introduced each other to our own different philosophies and values of both art and writing), and it was nice to do something together when we are starting to be a little more competent with the storytelling skills that we are still learning.
