Some itty bitty friends from the letter page of Lobster Johnson: Satan Smells a Rat
BABIES
(reiterating the ENORMOUS SPOILER WARNING)
This is a great interview, but the thing I like most about it is the fact that he recognizes that it’s important for fans and creators to inhabit separate spaces, and for fans to be able to interact with each other without worrying about their interactions affecting anything. The writers have their story and their vision and they’re sticking to it, no matter what crazy theories we come up with, and no matter what we have to say about the way the story is going.
I liked that Allie’s reaction to a ‘fan’ letter that essentially said “BPRD sucks now, it’s lost its focus and I’m not interested anymore” was basically “we know what we’re doing and we’re going to tell this story how we want to.” I was never really worried that fans’ input would affect the course of the story, but I’m happy to see that they aren’t at all apologetic about the choices they’ve made.
Also the flexibility of their approach to telling these stories really strikes me. It sounds like at its core, the story is art-driven in addition to being character-driven. They know what they want to do with this world, it’s just a matter of working out who can tell the story how.
I want to read their spreadsheet that plans out the comics we’ll get each week from now til the end of 2014…
