Hi Alex, my question is what music do you listen to as you work and what is a favorite song of yours? Thank you!

These days I pretty much only listen to podcasts while I work, some of my favorites being:

Never Not Funny
Comedy Bang Bang
This American Life
Radio Lab
Doug Loves Movies
WTF
Dan Carlin's Hardcore History
The Pod F. Tompkast
The Retroist
Coverville (which is at least a music podcast)

I do listen to a lot of music while away from the drawing table, and spend an unhealthy amount of time curating my itunes library. My all-time favorite band is The Beatles but most of the music I listen to falls into the "alternative" category. The album I liked best from last year was Zee Avi's Ghostbird .I also have a fondness for novelty songs, including bands like Flight of the Conchords, Jonathan Coulton and The Hazzards. 

Thanks for your question!

Congrats on the 'Too Cool to be Forgotten' film having found it's screenwriters. Can you share some thoughts on this project? Will you have a hand in it as it moves forward? Does other film work (storyboards, directing, screenwriting, etc) hold any intere

Thanks! We're all very excited about it around here. As far as I know I won't have much input with the project, which is how I prefer it. While I love the idea of other people adapting my work I don't think I have the temperament or constitution to handle movie making. One big reason comics appeal to me is that one person can produce whatever story they like with no compromises or interference by sponsors, studio heads, focus groups, etc. If you're willing to put in the time you can tell whatever story you like

I am excited to see how the movie develops and will be curious to see what changes they make to the story, though it's not without its risks: I'm sure they'll wind up making some choices that will have me kicking myself for not having thought of them first.
