"My only regret was discovering, while the drawing was in progress, that we were obliged to use the revamped versions of the Western characters from Blaze of Glory. I'd intended to use the original, Kirby designs with the goofy masks and cow spots and such. Learning I had to somehow make the Blaze of Glory characters funny and fun just took all of the fun out of it for me, and the western heroes were thus relegated to what became, essentially, a large cameo role. I just never got my mind wrapped around them and, all due respect to my good friend, the brilliant John Ostrander, Blaze just didn't do it for me." - Christopher Priest
