Some really interesting questions and answers. Looking forward to future AMAs.
The standing while drawing was a really interesting point, I know a few people who have standing desks. Do you have any similar tricks for when you are writing? I often struggle to write for long periods of time unless I am in a coffee shop for some reason but when home in my own office I struggle, I'm guessing it has to do with doing my day job in the same office.
One of these questions made me draw the parallels between you and another multi talented comics auteur, Neil Gaiman. He show ran Good Omens, you are showrunning Essex County. He created a fringe universe with The Sandman, you created Black Hammer something like an allegory for mainstream comics. I cannot wait for what next projects either of you have up your sleeves (Sandman Audible part II tomorrow as of writing, Maze Book and Primordial issue 2 soon). Thanks for the AMA!

> ... I find the “big fight” the least interesting part of superhero comics and in Black Hammer I get to flip that stuff and focus on the characters.
That's definitely a big part of why I enjoy the series too. Thanks!
> I cannot wait to be able to talk more about my new series with Gabriel!
And I can't wait to hear about it ;) Both Sentient and Barbalien: Red Planet were really special.
> I do plan on going back to Royal City for sure.
Royal City is still my favourite series that you've done, so this makes me very happy.
I appreciate you taking my question, Jeff. I look forward to the next post!
Thanks for the reply Jeff, your honest answer was better advice than any other, and helped a lot. Thanks again.
Thank you for replying, Jeff! Glad to see you're a big fan of Twin Peaks too! :D
This is cool.
