    Great talk on how one of the biggest names in comic books today became what he is.

    Idc what anyone says. Bendis is my favorite writer ever. Haven't enjoyed his more recent stuff as much as I'd want to but he's still my favorite.
    P.s. i realize im 6 years late.

    It's the easiest thing in the world to just go and make your comic but it feels like it's not when you're older; you have bills to pay, you have a day job, you need to spend time with your wife, your family, friends, etc., etc.
    But Bendis! is right; just make the comic. Put it out there. You're in the business of making comics.
    Everything else (with exception to the family/spouse time) is an excuse to not getting your comics made.
    I tell this to myself more than anyone else and it's still a struggle to get to the drawing board or the word processor but once I do that? Nothing. And I mean NOTHING. Feels better.

    All his comics tell the same exact story pretty much, but Brian is still a good writer. I liked his New Avengers & Ultimate Spider-Man (Comic Book NOT The TV Show) series, but I loved Powers! That was his best series.

      I ask you the same question, how many comics have you sold???
      thats right none.
      Its not about how many comics he has sold, the quality of the product.
      Sales don't necessarily determine that the product being sold is going to be good or not.
