Behind the scenes:

Peter Gabriel said it best." Commercial Success is a fickle mistress. If you go looking for her, she’ll avoid you. If you stay true to yourself, she’ll come looking for you."...KEEP IT PURE!!!

Sting said that rock and roll is a bastard art form. What he meant is that it is a hybrid art form.,When rock and roll regurgitates on itself, it fails, but when it looks outside itself and brings in country, jazz, opera etc, it thrives.

Same thing with comics. Comics isn’t art or writing. Its not painting or line art. Its not poetry and screenwriting. It’s all these things and more. all mixed in together to create the bastard art form of comics. But when comics regurgitate on themselves, it fails too
