Larry Young talks to Chris Brown about where AiT-PlanetLar has been, and where it may be going:
Me, I like all the experimental and offbeat things we do with concept and presentation… I like making new categories, or proving existing ones have more worth than folks may originally think, like the AiT and DEMO scriptbooks we put out, or the collection of Warren Ellis’ COME IN ALONE online columns, or the BADLANDs screenplay book, or the SURVIVING GRADY collection. I like our all-ages books as entrances to the libraries, and I like putting new voices and talents out into the world. I know more than a few editors’ first encounters with a work of Matt Fraction, Adam Beechen, Becky Cloonan, Rick Spears and Rob G, Fabio Moon and Gabriel Ba, and even Rick Remender came from a book with an AiT logo on it, because the editors have told me so. So having that kind of eye and working hard with new folks Making Comics Better is really very right on.
