What is status of the Black Hole film project?
It was just announced that David Fincher is the director who’s attached—as they say—to the movie. I’m not involved in any of the creative process other than having this book that’s the focus of the story. How do you feel about your work being adapted? Recently I’ve been working on an animated movie that just came out in Paris, the English translation is called Fears of the Dark. It’s a feature with six different artists that are writing and directing a segment of a black and white animated movie about fears of the dark. But you were asking about the Black Hole film. I guess I made a decision that I didn’t want to pursue trying to keep control. I wanted to move on to other things. That’s pretty much it. You work in both illustration and comics; at this point is there one you prefer? At this point in your life have comics become more of a side project? No, not really. It’s a balancing act really. They’re both my work, but obviously with the comics I have complete control. There’s no edit
