great interviewer
really good.
Ennis' war stories are incredible.
My grandfather was in WWII. He was one of two only survivors of his original platoon--the rest were killed. He told me a few things in my twenties, but he never, ever gave me the gory details.
I know he only survived because he was fast. The platoon leader sent him and one other man to get help--their radios were cut off because of a hill or mountain. Anyway, they ran, and when they got back with help their platoon was already wiped out.
Grandma told me once that for years afterwards he would wake up screaming. This is a very quiet guy, hardly ever talked, and when he did he wasn't very nice. It's hard to imagine him waking up screaming, but it went on for years. I've wondered sometimes if he felt like a failed hero... or like there were no heroes, just survivors.
Another thing I remember is what happened when he got back to the states. It was somewhere in Illinois, I think. Anyway, he stayed there for a couple weeks, and they made him and the other soldiers paint the nearest post office again and again, just to give them something to do. They did that until they were sent home. Weird ending to something as insane as WWII.
Reading almost any war story Ennis writes is like dipping a pinky toe into what Grandad went through... without having to experience it for myself
Congratulations on the interview. Great questions and fantastic conversation. I love Ennis' work.
Gath is my all time favorite writer, and not only on comics but in the literature in general, cause, even when I´m a mexican comic author who don´t smoke o drink I still can relate to their characters and stories, Hitman 10.000 bullets is the comic that I read when I´m sad, PREACHER the comic that ecourages me to start my comics so, fo a very long time I´ve been searching for info about him and looking for an interview like this and you guys incredibly nailed it.
Thank you so much, at this time with all the crazy stuff that is happening in the world I really needed a motivation like this.
Totally agree with you! Ennis is also my favorite writer. Do you have anything published? Awesome to see un mexicano in the comic world :)
@@superdragonz1 I got some comic published with independent publishers here in mexico but I hope in the future publish something in an american publisher.
Te recomiendo que te centres solo en dibujar o solo en escribir, ya que es muy dificil dominar las dos cosas, mucho ánimo!
Such a superb and the most detailed interview I've personally seen with Ennis 😎
great interview - thanks
Great interview and fun to get some inside in this genius mind.
Great job, man. Great interview/interviewer.
Tommy Monaghan is honestly one of for me the best protagonist ever
I would so love for Garth to do a
Sgt Rock story someday.
Would have loved to see ennis do a soft reboot to ghost rider and blade like he did puniaher
he did write ghost rider
@@strotherpt yeah i know i meant like a actual ongoing instead of a mini series
shoulda asked "what the hell happened in the end of a walk through hell?"
