An Interview W/The Comics Journal Site From 2021 (Patreon)

I came across this interview that I did with Robert Newsome for the Comics Journal website while looking something up online. Figured I'd post a link to it for the hell of it. It talks about some career and emotional issues I was going through, some of which I've turned a corner on in the last year or so (fingers crossed), some of which I'm still struggling with. The interview is from April, 2021, around the time that Dark Horse Comics were readying the hardcover Beasts of Burden collection for the "Occupied Territory" arc that Sarah and I wrote and Benjamin Dewey illustrated (recently collected in the Beasts of Burden Omnibus). And also and more importantly when shit was breaking down because of Covid and the miserable response from the administration and many others to the pandemic. What a horribly long four years since, with more horror to come. But I digress. And depress, I guess.

I probably posted this interview here when it was first published, but I figured a repost every once in a while can't hurt.
