The third of five teasers for HARVEST by A.J. Lieberman and Colin Lorimer
“I appreciate the fact that we do a zombie book, I appreciate the fact that because of that very nature, it has to be gory and you have to show stuff. We have never done anything gratuitously. That sounds so ridiculous to say, but every time we’ve shown some level of violence to another human being, it’s always been to serve the story, even when we show a torture scene. It wasn’t just 15 pages of violence for no reason, there was a reason for it.”

QUEEN CRAB by Jimmy Palmiotti and Artiz Eiguran is reviewed at Graphic Novel Reporter:

“It’s pretty hard to get ahead of the curve when the reality is this screwed up. It was an absolutely fascinating world to research.”
Writer Ed Brubaker talks about FATALE at Comics Alliance:
“I’ve been getting more interested in storytelling that has layers, I think. Two or three or more plotlines that weave around each other. And it seemed like a bigger challenge, to try to do three noir tales that are wound around a horror story examination of the idea of the femme fatale archetype. If you don’t challenge yourself in your writing, you don’t keep getting better. And I always want to try to push myself into doing things differently than I have before. I don’t always succeed, of course, but trying to tell a bigger more sprawling story seemed like it would at least be a more interesting challenge, even if I failed.”
