The important information you need at the beginning of an issue. Like way they did the old Frank Miller Daredevil issues in the first five pages he always had to state his origins and how he got his powers.
I think Walking Dead is one of the friendliest new reader type books in that every time a new trade is shipped out, a new issue is shipped out at the same time.
I have things planned for every character like what they're doing down the road and coming to different realizations but I don't have how they overlap.
I think Walking Dead is more of a stretch for me because I'm a light hearted superhero kind of guy.
If I'm grumpy I sure do enjoy writing The Walking Dead.
I like good stories above all else... and kickin' art really goes the final stretch to ensure a comic is good.
