Two more interviews to report today. One’s with Tom Spurgeon, and in it I say:
“…Comic strips were far more formative than comic books. Looking at both industries today, from the perspective of an adult in their midst, I’m utterly baffled that the two media even share a common term — “comics.” I don’t think they could be more different.”
Then there’s the one with Geoff Hoppe, in which I say:
“Not many people know that behind the Dark Horse publishing empire there actually is a literal dark horse. He is a swarthy stallion named Morton.”
