Did anyone have specific roles, such a writing dialogue versus setting up shots and panels?
BP: I do most of the main writing but Matt has written some issues as well. There really are no specific roles that we assign ourselves, but since a lot of the writing and story construction is complete, I let Matt handle the lettering where he has the reigns to sensationalize the dialogue. MR: This is a great question because, at first, we read up on anything we could find about the “methodology” of creating a comic book. What ended up happening was pure coincidence. Since Ben wrote the first few issues for Spiralmind with some of my input, I took a shot at an issue on my own. He continued to write up until the twelfth issue with a little more input from me along the way. We were very lucky in the fact that Brian could take Ben’s narrative and lay it out sequentially better than we could come up with on our own. From there it was easy for us to lay in the dialog. Both of us worked on that, but when it came to actually lettering the narrative and dialog onto the pages, I had to make so
