Between all the different versions of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles you have watched/ read what are your favorite versions of each Turtle. AfroLuffyX The Preview pages for Sonic’s 30 anniversary comic seem to not have speech bubbles and dialogue, will the comic have The characters be silent or The dialogue and speech bubbles weren’t added in yet? AWF I recently saw a short video from the late Stan Lee (link provided for reference) where he goes on a mini vent about fans treating comic characters as if they're some kind of static being with set limits or abilities that have to be written a certain way, i.e. "so and so would beat so and so because reasons", with Stan explaining that characters abilities only matter as far as the writer writes them. As a writer, how do you feel about this? I've seen folks say you write some characters poorly, or "out of character", to which I've always said "in character is however the current writer decides to write them". What's your take? https://twitter.com/BlueTlouNerd/stat... Diane W. What would interactions between Sticks and Cosmo (from Sonic X) be like? Papadripopolous Ian, have you considered other writing formats? You're a comic writer, of course. But could we some day possibly see Ian Flynn, novelist? Minty (KoFi) Did any of the Diamond Cutters ever see/encounter Infinite during the war? Considering Infinite was also a mercenary, would they have recognized him or even crossed paths with him in the past? Joestar_SSB (KoFi) If you were handed the opportunity to completely retcon / rewrite / rework Infinite The Jackal's backstory with little to no restrictions (be it in either game or comic format) what would you change, and what of his character would you like to further explore? Happytimes (KoFi) Rouge's greediness pre-reboot Archie sometimes seemed more malicious...Was this intentional? Creative Name (KoFi) The story I've always heard about you getting brought onto Archie is that you kept sending them unsolicited scripts until Penders left, and when he left, they brought you on as head writer to replace him. My question is - what were the contents of these scripts and did any of their stories make it into the final comic? Did they have anything in common with Other M? Scurvy Piratehog (KoFi) We know that Dr Eggman is busy fighting Sonic. So that begs the question. Where...is... Dr BACONman. What is he doing with his life? Scruffymatt Kyle vs Ian. Who wins that fight? Ian,
