Pat Quinn artist on "G.I.Joe: Declassified" and "G.I.Joe # 11"
from Devil's Due interviewed by Richard Vasseur
www.jazmaonline.com

RV: What can you tell us about the story of "G.I.Joe:
Declassified"?

PQ: Probably not too much! That may be a better question for
editor Mike O'Sullivan.
  What I do know, is that it's the story of the Joes before they
were Joes. It's a 3 issue mini-series, each issue is 40 pages and
I'm splitting the penciling of each issue with Valentine
Delandro.

RV: Why do you think there is a demand to know more about the
roots of G.I.Joe?

PQ: Everybody loves a mystery, y'know? Not knowing things can
help retain interest...and people just love these characters and
want to know more about them.

RV: Do you have any characters you like drawing more than others?

PQ: So far I'm not too deep into the work, so it's hard to pick a
favorite. I do hope that I get to draw some ninja action though!

RV: What part of drawing do you enjoy the most?

PQ: hmmm...good question...I think the part of drawing and art,
comics in particular, is that you are always practicing creative
problem solving. You are always faced with some sort of equation
that needs a solution. I like figuring out the problem and then,
hopefully, making it look good.

RV: If you were not a comic artist what do you think you would be
doing?

PQ: Well, I'm a full-time teacher right now in addition to
comics. So I guess I would be a full-time teacher...or a
professional lottery player.

RV: Do you have any future projects?

PQ: I hope so...??
Keep your eyes peeled for Phantom: Legacy which should be out
soon, a little story called A.K.A. (written by Ben Raab and Deric
Hughes) to be published by Th3rd World, and there are a few pages
of G.I.Joe #11 that I helped out with.

RV: What was the first comic you ever drew?

PQ: My first professional work was for Claypool Comics. I did 8
pages in the middle of an issue of SoulSearchers Inc. and then
later I did an entire issue. Thanks again Richard!

RV: If you could draw any comic outside of Devil's Due which one
would it be and why?

PQ: I don't know...I like the super-hero stuff, so probably some
of that.

RV: Where would you like to be 5 years from now career wise?

PQ: Getting paid way more for way less work.

RV: Who has inspired you the most in your life?

PQ: That's a tough one...I tend to get hit with inspiration from
different people depending on my place in life at that moment.
Naturally the biggest inspiration is from my family, particularly
my wife. I also get really inspired looking at the work of other
pros, especially those that are my close friends.

RV: What type of movies do you watch?

PQ: Talkies.

RV:  What comics did you read growing up and what do you read
now?

PQ: Mostly super-hero stuff, which I still read. As I learned
(and I am still learning) more about comics I read more stuff,
different genres, different art styles.

RV:  How can someone contact you?

PQ: Anything except a baseball bat is fine thanks.

RV: Any last words of advice?

PQ: Comics are a challenge. You have to love doing it, not just
reading comics, but making them. Work hard at it and take a
breather every once in a while.

Craig Boldman writer, Rex Lindsey penciler and Rich Koslowski
inker on "Jughead" from Archie Comics interviewed by Richard
Vasseur www.jazmaonline.com

Rich Koslowski:

RV: Is inking more than just tracing over the pencil drawings?

RK: Yes, of course. Inkers are talented artists who, above all,
need a very steady hand--not an easy thing to do. There are
pencilers who require the inker to do more as well. Some
pencilers like Rex Lindsey are very, very tight and have all the
details there for you, while others like Dan Parent are very
loose and there's more decision-making for the inker to do.

RV: Would you like to or do you pencil?

RK: Oh yes! In addition to my inking duties at Archie I have
worked professionally in the animation, comics, graphic novel,
and children's books fields professionally since 1988. I have
done my fair share of writing and penciling, painting, inking,
lettering...done it all. I've had two major graphic novels
published; THREE FINGERS (2002) and THE KING (2005)--the former
winning several industry award nominations and the IGNATZ AWARD
for best graphic novel of 2003. I've also had my own self-
published comic, THE 3 GEEKS, which later became GEEKSVILLE,
running since 1997 and that has done very well for me. It was
nominated for three EISNER awards in 1999.

And I've just finished writing a Novella which will, I hope, see
print some time in the next year or so.

RV: How did you get hired at Archie Comics?

RK: I was working as a storyboard artist along with my friend
(and boos at the time), Art Mawhinney, on the SONIC THE HEDGEHOG
TV show and the people in charge of that asked Archie to hire us
on as a penciler/inker team. It was a very unique way of breaking
into the comics biz. I don't know if it's ever been done that way
before. Especially since that was always the field in which I
wanted to work--being a comics fan since 5 years of age.

RV: What are the tools of your trade?

RK: Well, mostly my mind! You need a very strong mind to make it
in the comics biz. A lot of perseverance, tenacity, thick skin,
patience. Those are really the most important things. The brushes
and ink and stuff?...yeah, that stuff is necessary too, but if
you don't have the skill and the mind-set it doesn't matter what
kind of brush you use...or ink. For the record, though, I use
mechanical pencils, a Windsor Newton series 7, number 2 brush
(for inking), and I like the tech pen ink "Koh-i-noor" Ultradraw.
That ink is the blackest ink I can find. Some inks are just too
watery.

RV: How many comics per month do you have you ink to earn a
decent living?

RK: Well, if I were just inking, and not picking up any other
work, I would say that you'd have to ink at least 36-48 pages a
month to get by modestly. I don't know that there's too many guys
out there "getting rich" inking comics.

RV: Have you ever fantasized about being in the Jughead comic?

RK: I wish I could eat like Jughead and not gain any weight!

RV: Do you have a favorite Archie character?

RK: JUGHEAD! Of course! Seriously, he has always been my
favorite. His aloof attitude, the constant eating, sleeping...
what's not to like? I do like girls a bit more than he does,
though.

And, of course, I had major crushes on both Betty and Veronica
growing up. Midge, too! And I think I could take Moose.

RV: Why should people read Archie comics?

RK: Because they're fun. They're great for younger readers--
fantastic--but fun for adults as well. Good, wholesome laughs.

RV: If you could work on any comic at all which one would it be
and why?

RK: Oh geez...there are so many titles out there that I'm a fan
of! Impossible to answer. I have story ideas for many characters
like BATMAN, SUPERMAN, THE X-MEN, THOR, DAREDEVIL, just to name a
few. My problem is that I'm always working on my own creator-
owned projects and never seem to have the time to pitch my
stories to other companies. I am gearing up to do just that,
though, finally. I've already pitched an idea to Marvel that
they've shown interest in and am looking to pitch some other
ideas to both Marvel and DC soon.

RV: What would you like to be doing career wise 5 years from now?

RK: The exact same thing I'm doing now, except doing it more
successfully. I'm fairly well-known now, and make an okay living,
but I dream of having a best-seller--a movie deal! Who doesn't
wish for that when they enter this field?

RV: Any words of advice for other inkers?

RK: If they're already in the biz...think about trying other
things in addition to inking--broaden their horizons. Don't
pigeon-hole themselves as just inkers.

If you're talking about "budding" inkers...first and foremost if
you don't have a rock-steady hand don't bother. This doesn't mean
you're not a good artist...don't take me wrong...I've seen many
great artists who cannot ink. But if you are one of the blessed
ones with that steady hand, then my advice would be to hone it
and develop a style. I like "depth' when I ink. I think it's
important to show different line "weights" depending on how close
characters, or objects, are to the foreground or background. Some
inkers use single line weights (Mike Mignola, for example) and it
can work--sometimes wonderfully! But in most cases I find that
comics look best when an inker differentiates his line weights.

RV: Any last words of wisdom?

RK: Never give up! Never give in! And if you meet one of those
nincompoop editors out there who makes you promises and then
never returns your emails or phone calls, don't let it get you
down...use it to motivate you. That's what I do. They tick me off
and it only motivates me more. I've got an "I'll show them!"
attitude.

By the way...in case you're wondering...this does not apply to my
14 happy years working for Archie. Victor Gorelick has been a
fantastic editor to work for and I think our relationship is
phenomenal. Word!

Craig Boldman:

RV: Can you describe Jughead's character?

CB: He's not too concerned about how he's seen by others. He is
what he is.

He stays true to himself, and on the occasions he deviates from
that, it gets him into trouble. Beyond that, there's the eating
thing and the aversion to females thing -- both great, bottomless
sources of story material.

RV: How do you get Jughead's unique sense of humor across?

CB: Equal parts plot and character. The trick is to devise a
situation that will bring out the funny quirks in Jughead's
personality -- something that will push his buttons. Then just
wind him up and let him go. If you can successfully channel the
character you're writing, the humor happens naturally, and that
seems to work pretty well with me and Jughead.

Also -- what's great about writing for Rex is, he takes whatever
is funny in my script and runs with it. There's a great sense of
humor to Rex's drawings, and that's not a common quality.

RV: Why has Jughead's crown become so symbolic of him?

CB: I suppose because he refuses to stop wearing it! Believe it
or not, hats like that were a minor fashion fad among kids
several generations back. They made them out of their father's
old hats and used them to display pins on. Jughead was just one
of those kids. He's never been one to keep up with current
clothing trends, which is why, sixty years later; he hasn't
gotten around to updating his headgear. So, that hat is
synonymous with Jug by default.

RV: Do you feel any pressure working on such an iconic figure?

No, Jughead doesn't really inspire a sense of pressure in that
way.

He's a very comfortable character for me to write. In many ways
he's the guy I'd love to be. Deadlines, that's where the pressure
comes from!

RV: What do you find most rewarding about writing?

CB: I can use it to address whatever's on my mind -- usually in
some oblique way, granted. It's a nice outlet. Plots often
revolve around something that annoys one of the characters. So
when I run into a situation that annoys me, it's grist for the
mill. It's a reason to ponder what's funny about a thing that
would otherwise just irritate me.

RV: Would you or have you worked for other comic companies?

CB: My first comic book work was for DC Comics, where I wrote a
stack of Superman stories, and inked some issues of a great
little book called 'Mazing Man. In more recent years I did a
little writing for their Loony Tunes and Cartoon Network books.
I've also done some comic writing for the foreign markets, mostly
Disney TV properties such as
"Doug," "Recess," and "The Emperor's New Groove." That last one,
I did the art and the writing for.

RV: Have you worked on any other Archie comics?

CB: My work has turned up in most of the Archie titles. When I
get my Jughead book done for the month, I'll sometimes turn my
attention to one of the other characters. I like them all.

RV: What advice do you have for other writers?

CB: Stay aware of your audience, and stay within the perimeters
of the requirements of the job at hand, but write to entertain
yourself. If you're going to devote the kind of time required to
being a writer hunched over a laptop, you might as well enjoy
yourself as best you can in the process.

RV: Do you have any future projects?

CB: Yes, and not necessarily comics projects. I've been cast in a
(small) role in a horror movie that's filming locally, called
"Immortally Yours." We did some filming yesterday, and I'm on
call for tomorrow.

It's a lot of fun, just being involved in the process. I'm also
in rehearsal for a play -- a community theater production called
"Lisbeth of Maplecroft," about Lizzie Borden and her sister,
twelve years after she became infamous. I'm writing a series of
children's books that I don't think I can divulge yet. Comics-
wise, I do a weekly webcomic called "Tailipoe" on my site that I
like to invite people to check out.

RV: Do you read any comics now?

CB: I do, but there aren't too many that I follow faithfully
these days. Mostly, I track down stray comics by my old favorite
artists and writers that I missed when they were originally
published. I grew up on Kubert, Kirby, Ditko, Kane, and their
contemporaries. I'll read new stuff, but those stories don't
stick with me like the Silver Age things I enjoyed as a kid.
Which, I guess, is the way it should be.

RV: How can someone contact you?

CB: I love to hear from people outside of my little box. I can be
contacted through my website, www.craigboldman.com

RV: Any last words of wisdom?

CB: Um, er, nothing that wouldn't seem pretentious, I guess. I'd
recommend a book of sayings by Ralph Waldo Emerson, he has a lot
of good sayings worth putting on your refrigerator.

Rex Lindsey

RV: Do you find it easy to draw his crown?

RL:  No!  It's a struggle for me.  Not just Jug's hat but
everything I draw.  I'm too particular and exacting.

RV: How do you come up with his fashions?

RL:  I try to draw Jug's clothes like the original artist used
to.  If anything, Jug's clothes are out of the ordinary and odd.
He doesn't try to keep up with the latest trends and styles.  He
wears what might shock people or is just comfortable for him.

RV: Do you have a favorite character you like to draw?

RL:  My favorite character besides Juggers is his constant pain
in the neck, (except for Ethel), Trula Twyst.  I like to draw
Trula 'cause she's a bit evil and yet has a cuteness to her
that's appealing.

RV: What do you think attracts people to Jughead?

RL:  Jughead is his own man.  He does what he likes as long as it
doesn't hurt anyone else.  He appreciates the good things in
life, like good food and long naps.  Many times he lets his
desires and wants go too far, but eventually he learns his lesson
on being too selfish or too hungry.  He's usually two steps ahead
of everyone, but doesn't let anyone know until the end, if ever.

RV: Have you ever had the chance to draw Captain Hero, Jughead's
super hero identity?

RL:  No, I haven't, but I drew him as "Squint Jones", the
daredevil escape artist, in the Explorers of the Unknown comic a
few years ago.

RV: Where does your inspiration come from?

RL:  My inspiration first comes from my love of cartooning and
comic books in general.  My inspiration for Jughead comes from my
nephews and the kids at the malls.  Wild Stuff!

RV: How did you get started drawing?

RL:  I started way back in Junior High school.  I drew all over
my notes in class.  I used to use tracing paper to draw from the
comic books, but then I eventually did my own stuff.  It wasn't
as good but more rewarding.

RV: Do you have any formal training?

RL:  I went to a community college first, and then I moved to New
Jersey from Colorado to attend the Joe Kubert School of
Cartooning.  That's where I really got into comic art.

RV: What artists do you admire?

RL:  I have many favorites from different art styles.  I like
Jack Kirby, Moebius, Barry Windsor Smith, Futurist Syd Mead, 30's
pin-up artists Enoch Bolles and Gil Elvgren, and last but not
least, the Archie artists, Harry Lucey, Dan DeCarlo, and Stan
Goldberg.

RV: What do recommend most for new artists to do to help further
their career?

RL:  Besides a lot of practice, the best thing is to draw samples
of the exact kind of work you want to get a job for.  That way
the editors can get a good idea of what you can do for them.
Also be willing to make compromises to your artwork.  Many times
other peoples' input will make your artwork better. Then
everyone's happy.

RV: What do you do with any spare time?

RL:  I like to go trail biking on the trails around where I
live.  I have a trap drum set where I drum along to my favorite
rock and roll tunes.  I collect a few old comics from the silver
age.  I dig old black and white movies and read books on science
and philosophy.

RV: What would you like to say to all the Jughead fans?

RL:  I want to say thanks for being the real cool guys. Jughead
fans know what's good when it comes to the best in funny comics.
It's a long tradition in the fine art of comic book story-telling
that's not putting anyone down, but just having a good time.
Remember, just don't eat too much junk food while reading of
Jug's adventures.  Thanks Guys!

Bobby Nash writer/artist/creator of "Life In The Faster Lane"
webcomic from League Of Talent interviewed by Richard Vasseur
www.jazmaonline.com

RV: How did you end up originally creating "Life In The Faster
Lane"?

BN: The University of Georgia in Athens, GA has a wonderful
continuing education program. I've taken a few classes there. My
first was a cartooning class taught by local artist Bill Staton
in 1992. One of our assignments was to create a one-panel gag
strip. My first step was to create the perfect character. Then I
thought of making a comic strip character based on my Dad, who is
something of a character himself. Thus was the comic strip R.O.
born. It would be a few years before it was renamed Life In The
Faster Lane. I should also mention that the strip has been
running all this time in a monthly publication called Keeping Up
With Kids, a local family magazine in North Georgia. The strips
are still called R.O. there.

RV: What are R.O., Honey and Melvin Nudell like?

BN: The characters of R.O., Honey, and Melvin are parodies of my
Dad, Mom, and Brother. None of them have aged much since I
started drawing the strips though. The strips are usually slice
of life gags. Many are based on true events or comments.

R.O. is husband and father. He's a character that speaks his
mind, which sometimes kicks off subsequent events in the strips.
Usually, he's very sarcastic, but usually funny.

Honey is wife and mother. She was originally only partly designed
around my Mom, who was not as thrilled about becoming a comic
strip character as the other two were. She's since come around
though.

Melvin is the kid. He's definitely a chip off the ol' R.O. block.
As a result, the pranks between them often reach mammoth
proportions, usually with Honey as the innocent bystander.

RV: What is the plot or story in "Life In The Faster Lane"?

BN: Plot? You think I could make this stuff up? Nah. I just sit
back and watch. The strips darn near write themselves. Basically,
each episode or strip is a slice of life tale. We're just looking
through the window at their lives and taking a snapshot. These
are one-panel gags so there's not much more than the punch line.
Sometimes there's only the punch line and the reader fills in the
rest. There are some ideas I've had that I just could not do
because I couldn't get them to work I the context of the one-
panel strip.

RV: What genre do you prefer working with?

BN: It varies. I think I have at least one story from each genre
rattling around in my brain. In novels, I find myself gravitating
toward suspense/thrillers. I write murders well, I've been told.
It seems to be the type of writing most people have responded to
as well. In comics, I love the more fantastical elements. I do
more science fiction and fantasy there. And the Life In The
Faster Lane strips are just plain fun.

RV: Do you have any funny stories about making these strips?

BN: Tons. Many of the strips are either based on a real life
incident or something a member of my family came to me with. My
family often comes to me and says, "I've got an R.O. story for
you."

The behind the scene stories are interesting. When Blake at
Leagues of Talent (http://leagues-of-talent.com/) asked if I
would be interested in running the Life In The Faster Lane strips
on his site, I thought it was a great idea. And easy since all I
had to do was email him the strips. When he asked if I wanted to
write anything about the strip for the main page, a bell went off
in my head. This would be the perfect place to tell some of those
funny stories. Instead of a write up on the main page, I attach a
commentary to each strip, telling tales about the characters, the
strip, pretty much anything that springs to mind. And with that,
easy went right out the window.

One of those funny full circle moments came to me as I was
writing the commentary for episode 1 when I remembered that
Blake, the head honcho over at Leagues Of Talent, and I met in
the very class where Life In The Faster Lane was born.

I'll give you an example of one story that has not been posted
yet.

This strip is loosely based on a real life event. The punch line
for this strip remains one of my family's favorite in-jokes to
this day. I had just purchased my first brand new vehicle,
straight off the lot, a charcoal gray Chevy S-10. I drove it
home. That was the extent of driving I had done. So the family
comes out to give it the once over. My brother was riding his
bicycle when he decided to see what all the fuss was about. In
his enthusiasm, he lost his balance and gouged a large deep gash
in the driver's side door of my truck. My. Brand. New. Truck. My
blood boiled, steam rising off the top of my head. My brother,
wisely, ran for the hills. My dad stepped up to me and calmly
said, "Don't worry about it. It's just a truck." That did nothing
to improve my foul mood as you can imagine. I only had to wait a
few years before I had the satisfaction of reminding my father of
his "just a truck" comment. You'll have to visit the site to read
the end of that one in episode 3.

RV: Do you prefer writing or drawing?

BN: Writing. As an artist I am strictly amateur hour. Life In The
Faster Lane is the only thing I draw these days outside of the
occasional doodle and sometimes sketching out ideas for artists
I'm working with if I have something very specific for a story so
they know what I'm thinking.

RV: What other comics have you created?

BN: Lots. Although no one has heard of them. I did a group of
super hero strips once upon a time with characters of mine called
Night Glider and Onyx Inc. I've worked on several titles for
publishers, but nothing I own. Books like Demonslayer, Jungle
Fantasy, Fuzzy Bunnies From Hell, Apocrypha, Shadow One, and Yin
Yang (the last four are not out yet).

I'm always working on things, but my focus for the last couple
years has been novels. My first novel, Evil Ways, a
suspense/thriller premiered in August 2005. My second novel,
Fantastix: Code Red came out in March 2006. I also have a short
story in the upcoming Bill Barnes: Air Adventures anthology this
summer.

RV: What is "Fantastix" all about?

BN: Fantastix, the brainchild of Albino Alligator's Jason Powell,
is the story of the rise and fall of Project Code Red.

In 1966, Project Code Red was launched. They planned to design
the perfect super spies using new brainwashing techniques. That
resulted in the creation of the drug named Fantastix. The project
failed. Almost.

In 1971 Haven, a vast criminal organization was born. They new
the secret of Fantastix. The drug did nothing to the initial test
subjects, but it altered their DNA enough that they passed along
those altered genes to their offspring. The offspring developed
special abilities, leading to the world's first super humans.
There was only one catch; the genetically altered descendents of
Project Code Red were born addicted to Fantastix. And Haven
controls the Fantastix.

In 2006 Haven decides to eliminate those who pose a threat to
their plans. Their first victim is the world's greatest super
hero, Dominus.

Fantastix: Code Red, the novel, follows the story of Code Red,
the investigation into Dominus' murder, and trials of five super
powered characters being hunted. Haven has declared that all
meta-humans must die.

See, I can't write anything without killing someone. It's a
sickness, I tell ya.

RV: "Bill Barnes: Air Adventures" is your first pulp anthology,
how did it feel working on it?

BN: I loved every minute of it. When editor Ron Fortier
approached me about working on this my first response was, "Bill
who?" I had absolutely no knowledge of the character so I went
into research mode, which I rather enjoy. Writing a Bill Barnes
tale was fun for me, but also presented a nice challenge. Writing
a short story has always been difficult for me. It took some
effort to keep within the size parameters, although Ron was very
flexible on word count if we needed more, which I did.

Another plus on working on Bill Barnes: Air Adventures was
working with a talented group of writers like Frank Dirscherl,
Win Eckert, and Bill Spangler as well as our editor, Ron Fortier
and artist Rich Woodall. Our flying squad really pulled together
early, especially in terms of sharing research.

RV: What other future projects do you have planned?

BN: Oh, I've always got a few irons in the fire. I'm working on a
four issue mini series called Yin Yang for Arcana Studios, but I
don't have a release date at this time. At the moment I'm working
to finish my third novel, a sci fi tale titled Earthstrike
Agenda. More on this as soon as I'm able. Plus, I have three
comics in production I can't quite talk about at the moment. I'll
get back to you when I have details.

RV: If you could have one super power what would it be and why?

BN: Super speed. Or the power to slow down time. As busy as I am
these days (I'm not complaining though) there's just never enough
time to get everything done in 24 hours. Plus, I'm not the
World's fastest on the keyboard so speeding up my typing could
only be a good thing.

RV: How can someone contact you?

BN: Feel free to visit my website. www.bobbynash.com. It's in
need of an update, but it's a good start. There's a contact
button there. Feel free to email me. Or, while you're on the
Leagues Of Talent site checking out the strips (http://leagues-
of-talent.com/webcomics/life/), feel free to post a message to me
on the LOT forum or send me a private message from there. Blake
has also set up a Contact Bobby link on the Life In The Faster
Lane page for bnash@leagues-of-talent.com. I usually respond
fairly quickly.

RV: Any last words of wisdom?

BN: This is for the creative types out there. If you want to be a
writer, artist, musician, actor, etc. make sure you work on
what's personally gratifying for you and you'll go far. It may
take some time to get there, but the journey's half the fun.

Not sure if that qualifies as wisdom or not, though.

See ya in the Faster Lane.
