Hi, Mark! This post is on behalf of /r/comicbooks, the comics-specific part of Reddit. We’re borrowing a great idea from our friends at /r/squaredcircle, in which we’ve collected the five most burning questions we’d love to see you answer. Thanks for your time and we hope you have fun during your AMA today!
Mark, what, in your opinion, makes a great comic book story? How is it different from what makes a great film, book, or TV show?
What makes Daredevil such a compelling character to write? Despite being a B-level hero, he has consistently had great writers do great runs.
What character have you wanted to write but never got the chance to? What would their hypothetical five-issue story arc be about?
Mark, given your adoration for Superman, how do you envisage your run, should it ever come to fruition? I understand you would take the character in a direction that editorial is unlikely to be sold on. Could you give us a quick breakdown of some of your ideas? Huge fan.
Who would you say are your biggest influences in terms of writing and story structure?
These questions were collected and voted on in this thread.
