Here are three new interviews of interest on ComicsCareer.Com:

“My dad was a Golden Gloves boxer and Canada’s middleweight champ. As a result, I think I can turn up the tenacity and intensity when the bell rings. My mom is the consummate kindergarten teacher, and I think I have that playful spirit in me as well. It’s a bizarre mix, but it’s definitely defined who I am.”

Rick Hoberg, Marvel and DC artist of the 70s and 80s, storyboard artist of the new Avengers cartoon show from Film Roman.

“[My biggest influences were] Doug Wildey, who taught me the art of cartoon storyboard and layout, and Russ Manning who first hired me to do comics and instructed me in the technical aspects which, in the end, create a good artist. I admired and loved both of these men.”

Tom Luth, colorist of Groo the Wanderer, Usagi Yojimbo

“One thing I learned was basically a change of how I perceived success. I had viewed my career as a journey from a novice to a destination where I achieved success, or a professional skill level, and then I had achieved “it.” It soon became obvious that there is no such thing as arriving at this destination. I have met artists who believed they found this perfection, and their work became stale in spite of being very well crafted. The life was gone. To stay alive, there needs to be a constant search for the next step.”
