AIPT: Marjorie’s another in a long line of lovable social deviants from Garth Ennis. What is it about a Frank Castle, Billy Butcher, and Marjorie Finnegan that’s so appealing to you as a creator and also us as fans/readers?

And a follow-up of sorts: how (if at all) does Marjorie fit in as it relates to some of those other beloved characters mentioned above?

GARTH ENNIS: Odd mentioning those three in the same breath, given that Frank and Billy are two of the biggest monsters in comics, and Marj is just out for some innocent-ish fun. She doesn’t fit in anywhere near them. I’m trying to think of a character like her I have written; she isn’t a monster, nor is she a victim of circumstances like Kev Hawkins or Code Pru. Maybe she belongs alongside some of the guys from Hitman, or someone more irresponsible like Cassidy from Preacher (although she isn’t the wretched s--t he turns out to be).
