Interview with James Asmus
I got a chance to interview James Asmus, writer of Quantum and Woody and The Delinquents so I thought some of you may want to check that out. If this is a little self-promotional and unwelcome I'll be happy to take this post down.

Re: Interview with James Asmus
Great Interview. You should probably have posted this in the General Valiant discussion forum - get more people to check it out.ValiantCentral wrote:I got a chance to interview James Asmus, writer of Quantum and Woody and The Delinquents so I thought some of you may want to check that out.

You asked all the questions that needed to be asked. Great job. Looking forward to more interviews.

I think Asmus is really talented. I think his storytelling sensibilities has mainstream appeal - he's funny and clever.
I definitely wouldn't mind seeing him tackle another title or mini-series.

Re: Interview with James Asmus
I really enjoyed reading, thanks alot for sharing.
Great interview.
A point I want to make as well is, either you or someone else actually must have read it after the text was created, because unlike bleeding cool and some of the other sites, it doesn't hurt my brain with all of the typos and terrible formatting.
Seems like a really interesting guy to have some drinks with too!

Re: Interview with James Asmus
Thanks for sharing. I want more Q&W period. It was amazing 12 book run. Hopefully we can get back on track with #13 after The Delinquents.ValiantCentral wrote:I got a chance to interview James Asmus, writer of Quantum and Woody and The Delinquents so I thought some of you may want to check that out.

Re: Interview with James Asmus
Asmus is one funny dude. His son's name is something to the effect of 'Devlin The Conqueror Asmus'.

Re: Interview with James Asmus
Thanks guys it was a fun interview. I got the feeling from him that he will be doing more Q&W in the future so we'll see after Q2 is over. Interview with Warren Simmons coming soon and some others getting lined up.
