#1 What is the first comic you remember reading?

probably 80’s Ghost Rider or ROM. Thanks Pop!!

#2 You can only pick two: all time favorite comic book characters?

Spider Jerusalem and Johnny Blaze no contest here.

#3 What is your favorite series arc, limited or mini-series of all time?

The Freeze Me with Your Kiss arc from Transmetropolitian issues 10-12. Hits close to home in regards to dealing with relationships 😉

#4 How do you read your comics? Print, digital, trades?

I do all three, but mostly in print and trade. I read digital when/if I get a code. If I fall for the book I will buy it in print.

#5 What is your favourite independent comic you feel everyone should be picking up?

I’m taking this one very Indy. Deep underground for my man @MonkeySquadOne’s Monkey Squad One. Great book that’s got it all.

#6 You get to pick three: Favorite writers (current or of all time)?

this is easy peasy. Warren Ellis, BKV and Josh Williamson.

#7 What is your favorite comic collector’s item?

This may be a cop out, but my short box full of complete runs of X-Force/X-Statix, Immortal Iron Fist and almost full run of Transmet.

#8 As a reader do you tend to stick to a specific publisher, follow creative teams or follow characters?

I follow creators and I will always give a new Ghost Rider book a chance.

#9 You get to pick three (again): Favorite artists?

Darwyn Cooke, Bryan Hitch and Mike Allred. They represent artwork that reminds me of the past, current and future of sequential art.

#10 What was the last comic you read before answering these questions?

Call it pandering if you will. I call it serendipity. X-Force 116 for #XStatixclub 😉
