Barney Smith, the host of Story Comics, a really great resource for comics and graphic novel creators, recently interviewed Maggie Shang and I about “Runaway Train,” our short comic for the Kids Comics Studio Anthology, which, by the way, was funded on Kickstarter within 15 hours of launch, but we still have two more stretch goals to meet, including the biggest one of sending a panel of anthology creators to the San Diego Comic-Con.

But back to the interview. Maggie and I got to share some things we’ve learned about collaborations, anthologies, and short-comic creations. In the near future, we’re going to share the different scripts, how and why we changed them, and what we finally ended up with and why. It’s been a mini-course is editing, hitting deadlines, and crafting scripts to leave room for the art. But for now, please enjoy this interview:
