"I have a strong moral backbone but I'm a pretty screwed up guy. So like every reader, I can easily relate to the archetypal comic hero, or even villain once and a while. I'm also pretty existential of a thinker, so I love smart comics… I try to alternate between say, the Invisibles or Brian Wood's indie work, and something beefed up and fun ala Geoff Johns or SECRET INVASION. I love graphic novels even more than real books and truly believe the medium allows for a butt-load of artistic expression due to how it can play with certain imagery and symbolism to do something that is actually profound."
