'The New 52,' I was really excited that new people got to jump in on books. In particular, on 'Aqua Man.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Geoff Johns is super talented, super smart. Part of what got me excited about the Aquaman character is his re-envisioning of Aquaman, the character, with 'The New 52.'
The thing that ultimately pushed me more towards 'Aquaman' is I love the possibility of creating a whole new world. I've always wanted to do a world creation story and visually create this amazing, incredible, magical kingdom.
We had that first Marvel NOW! retreat where everybody came in and pitched their new books, which was probably the most exciting retreat I've ever been to because it was all brand new.
Aquaman's such an amazing character.
'The Little Mermaid' was a really great experience.
'House of Cards' opened some doors. I've been able to tackle some diverse stories and characters.
I'm a very promiscuous reader. My dad's a big science fiction fan, so I'd read 'Dune,' and 'Watership Down' and 'The Lord Of The Rings.'
I inhaled books. I loved Classics Illustrated comic books. These were books that I could afford to buy after I turned in pop bottles for change. 'The Prince and the Pauper,' 'Robinson Crusoe,' 'A Journey to the Center of the Earth.' Male narratives filled with adventure and self-discovery.
I am so excited about the 'Goosebumps' movie; I am geeking out. I was a huge fan of the books.
I really wanted to do 'Modern Family,' and I really liked the script, and I liked the people.
