Paul, I heard an interview where Lemire describes the book as his lover letter to Twin Peaks. Did you find any Lynchian elements in the book?

I've never understood the love affair with Bagley. After reading a long run of Ultimate Spider-man, I was so tired of the big eyes and pointy hair.

Grimm's Fairy Tales. Now hear me out on this one. My local comic shop promotes the hell out of this title. Judging by the covers, it looks like it affirms every awful stereotype about fanboys and drawings of scantily clad women.
