For SPIDER-WOMAN, ay least, I don't have five runs, but the Gruenwald/Infantino run and the Claremont/Leialoha run are both good reads, and the entire run of the first series has been collected in...
"Rising star." Ha ha ha!
I was nowhere near "star" or even "rising" at the time -- I was getting so little work as a writer that I was working as a freelance assistant editor on MARVEL AGE at the...
I like the Liberty Legion, but I think I'd rather read more about them (and by preference, set during the war) than write it.
I don't think it'd sell very well, though, not these days. So I...
Thanks!
Well, I think Miles is on pretty solid ground these days.
I'm waaaaaay out of touch with recent Marvel books, but I can usually find something in any character to enjoy about...
I'm not sure I made that up -- I mean, Morgan's been thought to have been partly fae for centuries, which is where the name comes from -- but if I was the first to mention it in a Marvel comic, I...
I dunno. It was a long time ago.
But it certainly sounds like I'm referencing whatever else was going on with him in the Marvel Universe at the time -- I wouldn't have had Moonstone says something...
George wanted to have everyone, so we put in everyone. Even The Yazz.
A lot of the one-panel rosters were George having fun. A few of them were mine, but I'd have to check the plot to see...
That's something you can decide for yourself, based on the depictions you see in front of you. You don't need me to give it a stamp of approval.
I think going by what you see in the comics is the...
I don't think strength really works that way.
I know, for example, that what I can lift on a Saturday afternoon at 3pm may be too much for me to lift at 3:05pm, but if I rest a little I might be...
That run is a favorite of mine, but it's not a story, is it?
139 is a story about ice-related villains
140-141 is the "No Man/World Escapes the Manhunters" story
142-143 is the first Construct...
Yeah, I think we spent several issues on them. I like them as characters.

I don't get it. Kirby didn't say Steve's ancestor was a figment of his dreams, he says Steve dreamed about him. People dream about real people often. If I wake up one morning and tell my wife I...
I haven't read it since it came out. I know the art was gorgeous -- of course it was, it was Bolland -- and Mike Barr's a solid craftsman, but I don't remember much about the story.
And I don't...
I planned to do a lot with the undersea world. Didn't have specific plans for Venturia and Queen Clea, but I'd have probably made some along the way.

It is (though it's an English book, written in Middle English with a French title). But that book is a prose reworking of earlier stories of Arthur.
And in LE MORTE D'ARTHUR, Morgan le Fay is...
The Mordred of myth is generally presented as either the son of Arthur and his half-sister Morgause or the son of Lot and his wife Morgause. Morgause (in some legends named Anna) is Queen of Orkney,...
Many years' worth.
I may have to do them somewhere else in another form.

Not even close.
Lots of them, but I'll keep them to myself -- I might get to use that stuff someday.
I'd be tempted to do the story we were hinting at about WITCHFIRE, though that could...
I haven't kept up regularly with Avengers titles since I left the book -- after being the puppeteer for a long time it's hard to step back into the audience.
Haven't read the end of AVENGERS INC...
I've never really been able to do podcasts. But I'm currently reading THE BOOK OF LOVE by Kelly Link, which has been getting great response. Her short stories are amazing, so I'm glad to finally have...
I don't know what they've got in print at present and what they don't, but if it's the 50th anniversary they'd be celebrating, why not the first one, the one that'd be 50 years old?

Beats me.
With no disrespect meant whatsoever, this is a little like asking a plumber to fix your toilet for the fun of it. I've got plenty of creative work to do as it is, and if I work out new...
You're more than welcome, Hakka. Glad you enjoyed it.

No. Sales were going up, overall.
But newsstand sales were collapsing (in great part due to consolidation and shenanigans among newsstand distributors, which were affecting all magazines, and in...
You mean, like in 1964?
There were certainly fans who wanted Peter to stick with Betty, or to date Liz more. But they didn't have an internet, they just wrote letters.
And when Pete moved on,...
