That was a fascinating point about dialogue in comics. Seems obvious now, but I hadn't thought of it before

Posted by DaveCarr on 04/16/09 at 12:33 PM

Awesome! What a great surprise. I will listen immediately.

Posted by cman12 on 04/16/09 at 12:38 PM

A great listen, very insightful. Can't wait to see where Incognito goes from here!

It's almost like his upcoming Marvels series is a continuation of his run on Captain America, with all the espionage behind the origins of the Marvel universe. I wasn't going to pick it up, but now its definatly piqued my interest!

Thanks!

Great interview!

Josh, I couldn't help noticing that EB mentioned the role of a small dog in his creative process. Maybe you and George can garner some inspiration from this!

Posted by ohcaroline on 04/16/09 at 08:07 PM

It did cross my mind.

Posted by josh on 04/16/09 at 09:33 PM

Way to go with the Ted Leo!

You know, I comment on music more than just about anything else.

Great interview, guys.

I remember reading that Tarantino has a specific ritual when he starts a script where he has to get a certain kind of composition book and a red pen or something.

Ed, whenever you ultimately wrap up your run on Captain America, please publish your notebook. Love seeing stuff like that.

Posted by PaulMontgomery on 04/17/09 at 02:49 PM

I think that Tarantino material you're thinking of is pot.

Posted by josh on 04/17/09 at 03:48 PM

Yeah, Paul, have you seen a Tarantino script?

Posted by miyamotofreak on 04/17/09 at 06:28 PM

I will no longer be sharing my anecdotes with you ingrates.

Posted by PaulMontgomery on 04/17/09 at 06:32 PM

the secret word for this interview is "ya'know"

I stopped the interview in the middle and when i restarted he said ya'know 3 times in 5 words and from that point it was all i could hear.

I now know why sometimes text interviews are better ya'know

Posted by leigh on 04/18/09 at 08:15 PM

Dammit Leigh, now that's all I'll hear.

Posted by miyamotofreak on 04/18/09 at 08:41 PM

Ed Brubaker will no longer be sharing his anecdotes with you ingrates.

Ya know?

Posted by ohcaroline on 04/18/09 at 09:14 PM

He smokes a lot of pot! it's not a secret!

Posted by josh on 04/18/09 at 09:23 PM

good work boys, excellent interview

now, seriously, brubaker sounds like he is stoned constantly, every time i hear him interviewed.

" heyy, soo, yeah, it's like, if, like you could teleport, man, than, you know.... "

Posted by edward on 04/18/09 at 10:17 PM

Does great work and clearly cares about his craft. That's all I care about.

Posted by PaulMontgomery on 04/18/09 at 10:19 PM

Are we talking about Brubaker or Tarantino, now?

Posted by ohcaroline on 04/18/09 at 10:34 PM

I was talking about Tarantino. It was a damned joke!

Posted by josh on 04/18/09 at 10:35 PM

Ha ha, sorry, I just lost the thread of the discussion in there.

Posted by ohcaroline on 04/18/09 at 10:37 PM

no, no. i mean Brubaker. total stoner

Posted by edward on 04/18/09 at 10:39 PM

I really don't think Ed smokes pot! He's just that committed to teleportation!

Posted by ohcaroline on 04/18/09 at 10:47 PM

@ohcaroline

It's okay, we've all smoked pot. Some just stick with it.

Posted by miyamotofreak on 04/18/09 at 11:24 PM

To be honest; Brubaker doing a Jughead comic is something I would totally buy. Even if it's straight up serious on a guy who just eats too many hamburgers.

@miyamoto: Not me man, probably the safest person you'll ever know. If your talking about soda though...

Posted by TheNextChampion on 04/18/09 at 11:28 PM

hmmm..... i still think he sounds like he's ripped off his tits

Posted by edward on 04/20/09 at 04:18 AM

great interview. But do I really care about his political views (i.e. he said he believes most conservatives are evil)? No. Would rather just hear about comics.

Posted by wayne2001bc on 04/20/09 at 05:01 PM

Great interview guys! I woulc also buy Jughead comics if Brubaker wrote them lol.

Also Angel Of Death should be on itunes since I cant fracking stream it here [Canada].
