Like G.I. Joe, but with more cursing

June 18th, 2007

On the Eximious Press blog, Jason Rodriguez talks about Kill All Monsters, drawn by Jason Copland and written by Blog@’s own Michael May:

Jason sent me the opening scene. At the time, I was finishing up on Elk’s Run and ramping up Postcards – Kill All Monsters! was in a completely different creative direction then both of those books. But it was fun. And it was over-the-top and action-packed and still had some great character stuff underneath it so I figured I’d give it a shot.

We finished up the first issue so far – the pitch is going out shortly. I figured I’d share some pages with you guys and give you a look at my first little pieces of editorial insight. I like to do the quiet character pieces, sure, but I have to admit – with the right script I become that little boy with the G.I. Joes, setting up tremendous battle scenes in my bedroom. Except I curse a lot more now

    Hmm… soldiers swearing? It would never happen. But I guess they can get away with it, since comics are fictional.
