So youthinkcomic bookscan'tbe serious,huh?

We

spoke with RichMargopoulosconcerning our specialEERIE

needtocover Hunter's copper-colored skin. Richwasinfluencedbyasayingof Jean-Paul Sartre's:"Whenever twopeople'seyesmeet,

oneaverts his gaze.The onethusdominates the other,andreduceshimtothe levelofanobject." Prettyheavy stuff,

hmm?

Now,ifwecould just getoldJean-Paul to try hishandatcomics,..!
