FRIENDSHIP

When you’re willing to fight the hordes of hell itself in order to get your BFF laid :D

You know, sometimes I forget some of the material that we got in Secret Six. I’m not positive if any other mainstream superhero book talked this casually about some topics.

When I started at DC, we were not allowed to imply pee or poop in any context, and that drove me nuts to wear I felt I HAD to reference it.

But with Secret Six it was much more a function of the reality of each character. I think the fact that this stuff wasn’t presented as * tee hee giggle naughty giggle * helped us get things through. It wasn’t for leering, it wasn’t about Penthouse poses. It was just what the characters were thinking.


I miss the book tremendously, but I have to give DC props…hey never once asked me to tone down this kind of thing.

I did get a note once, “Can we do without the necrophilia and beastiality in this issue?”

Seems fair.
