Thanks to tompurdue, for pointing out the final Washington Post article on Captain America in which I'm interviewed. Heh, I don't know if the writer was sloppy or just too literal a transcriber, because yeah, that long-winded and convoluted speaker is definitely me.

Meanwhile, someone on scans_daily badmouths Dave McKean's art. Consider that for a moment: someone... truly and honestly... calls Dave McKean's artwork eye-burn worthy.

I... y'know, of course all art is subjective and no single given artist is going to appeal to everyone, but... DAVE MCKEAN! Specifically, ARKHAM ASYLUM Dave McKean! I... I just... why should I even have to explain that... it... sighhh.

I just don't get people sometimes.

Maybe one day, as with Kirby, I'll see some work of his and it'll finally click. "Ohhhhhhh, I totally get it now!" But for now... I honestly don't get it. Does nothing for me. Yet he inspires a cult of passionate followers in ways few other artists do.
