Aaron Lopresti Interview
2Geek Network was graced with the presence of Aaron Lopresti. A double threat. An individual who can both write and illustrate. We talked about him launching an indy label and crowdsourcing his work, plus all the obstacles he had to overcome, and what it is like writing a sequel and crowdfunding a project.
Aaron originally started writing in the late 80's early 90's, when he had aspirations to become a screenwriter for Hollywood. The rest is history because he derived from that and started writing for comics. In the interview, we dived deep into what it's like working for the "big two" and the biggest differences between the two, and lastly, what it's like working for an independent company. The meatiest part of this interview is all about the Wraith of God.
Aaron always wanted to do a twist on the monsters we know and love and create his own universe with them, especially after getting the rights back from Garbage Man. A character created to replace Swamp Thing, while working for certain companies. Wraith of God brings back includes Garbage Man as a one-shot. But the main story is all about Wraith and Esther teaming up to bring down Count Korvac a Nosferatu-looking being, who is dead set on ruling the world! As the story continues our two heroes will build and grow their relationship and also define it as they try to bring down the Count. So make sure to pick up the copy to find out more.
