the matt fraction cavalcade of whimsy

Making stuff up is better than anything else.

Except food and sex, maybe.

We should talk about his Arion... Preferably over a glass of orange juice.

Hey, Matt. Would you ever want to do a Doctor Strange/Iron Fist ongoing?

I'm really looking forward to the moment in Defenders when Strange breaks out the Doc-Fu

[PaleBlueEyes]

Do you happen to know if there is audio or a transcript of the addiction in comics panel you did at Emerald City?

Orange Juice goes with vodka, you know?

Hey Matt, I was wondering, what happened to Colleen Wing? It's been a long time since we've seen her...

Thanks again.

Wasn't she running around in HEROES FOR HIRE...?

Nah; though i think they fit well together in a lot of ways. Would still do a DOC solo book if the chance arose, i think.

If there is, i've not been made aware of it.

I'd love to see it, provided you scaled back the Strange-as-sexual-predator angle.

Excuse me?

Defenders BEGAN with a the-morning-after scene of Strange and some poor disposable grad student, with no real excuse except "She was there, we'd both been drinking, and I was lonely." That was your way of introducing his character to people who'd never read him before, and it isn't him. He could be cold, aloof, manipulative -- yes. But he never preyed upon young women who came to him for help.

That said, I'm still reading Defenders, and I loved #4. I liked your way of showing that he's a knowledgeable yet flawed human being, which in my view is exactly the way to write Strange.
