Wizard showcases some of the talent you will find appearing in Artist Alley at our upcoming shows and gives you the 411 on what to expect at the con and what projects they have coming down the pipeline.
1) What are you currently working on? Right now I'm writing an art book about artist Mark Texeira, as well as updating another book I wrote, "Excess: The Art of Michael Golden." That later book sold out, and we are going back to press.
2) What do you like best about attending the Wizard World shows? They are extremely well run shows, and they make appearing almost effortless. Plus, I like the cross section of folks that we run into, as well as seeing old friends.
3) What are your plans for 2008? More writing. More publishing. I'll also be curating several art shows in Manhattan, as well as one for the Barcelona Comic Con featuring the work of Michael Golden.
4) What is the project you are most proud of in your career? Wow, I don't know. I'm very proud of the book I wrote on Jackie Chan, entitled "Dying for Action, the Life and Films of Jackie Chan." He's such a great guy, and has always been a good friend. Following that, would be the creation of my comic series with Jackie and Golden entitled "Spartan X."
5) What is your dream project? Producing more animation and film work. Whatever that might entail at the time.
6) What characters would you most want to party with? None. I'd like them to stay in control of their superpowers, not be out of control. LOL Date? I've always liked Logan. Fight? None. Too much meaness in the real world.
