Once & Future #18

[laughing_tree]

My favorite thing about comics is that basically, comics is a real equal playing field to get an artist and a writer, or an artist by themselves really, and then 22 pages later it doesn’t matter if you’re from Marvel or DC or anyone else — you’re all basically doing the same thing. For me, Once and Future is better than anything Marvel or DC is putting out and it’s doing a similar sort of thing because this is a fun action comic. But with totally new characters with a strong mythic bent. I quite like you can do something that is utterly mainstream but with the volume turned up and the freedom that you allowed to do from a clean start. Dan is a mainstream pop phenomenon. People who read the book, it’ll take the top of their heads off. -- Kieron Gillen
