'Scalped' is representative of the kinds of stories I like to read and I like to watch.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Plot-wise, there's nothing particularly groundbreaking about 'Scalped.' It starts off as something we've seen plenty of times before: the story of an undercover FBI agent infiltrating a criminal organization and the story of the guy at the head of that organization. The twist was always the setting: a modern-day Native American reservation.
'Scalped' No. 1 was only the third comic script I'd ever written. I really learned a lot about writing on the fly with that series.
Allthough that doesn't happen often lately, I like to read exciting thrillers and those kinky magazines.
I'm an avid reader. Novels, non-fiction, comics, it doesn't matter. Best way in the world to feed your head.
I read as many scripts as I can and just find stuff that I think is interesting, find stories that I think are worth telling.
I've been reading tabloids since I was nine. I love a good story.
I wanted to tell a story that interested me as much in the telling as in the watching.
Even if I never sold another book, I'd keep writing, because the stories are here, in my head. Stories that just need to be told. I love watching a plot unfold, and feeling the surprise when the unexpected happens.
I think one or two of the later Holmes stories are among the best.
Let me tell you, 'The Reader' was not glamorous for me in terms of the body-hair maintenance.
