I was delighted to be interviewed on the True North Country podcast today, thanks to my time living in Vancouver, about writing The Hulk and X-men, the new Death Sentence hardback, my Chrome Roses cyberpunk series, drawing inspiration from the Canadian landscape, and learning to draw comics under David “V for Vendetta” Lloyd. A succinct 30 mins packed with real insight. Thanks to my host John Swinimer for a top notch production.

His artwork, words or character concepts have enlivened games from Sony, Lego, Bethesda, and Electronic Arts during his temporary residence in Vancouver, British Columbia. His writing has been described as “easily the equal of Dostoyevsky or Dickens” (Popmatters) and “work that ranks up there with greats such as Alan Moore and Warren Ellis.” (How to Love Comics).
