How do you make comics? Is there some kind of sorcery involved?
Yeah, pretty much actually. Photoshop should be classified amongst the Dark Arts, I think, as it makes it embarrassingly easy for mediocre artists to cover their shame with fancy effects. Anyway, without going on and on about it, I do all my work in Photoshop, using a 6×8 Wacom tablet. I don’t have any sort of formal training or anything, so I still have a lot to learn.

What is the update schedule?
I don’t have one, for now at least. The drawing times vary by so much that it’s not really possible to turn them out on a regular timetable. I’m hoping to get at least one done each week, and I’ll see if I can fall into some kind of pattern as I go along. You can follow my twitter account to see how far away the next comic is.

Why do you even make comics? I mean, I just cannot even conceive of the stupid decision-making that must have led you to this point.
Well I figured that if Tim Buckley has “the ability, the talent, and the imagination to be successful at it”, then any old idiot could do it so why not eh? I certainly fall within the previously-mentioned category.

Ha, nice one. Seriously, though.
I started drawing comics so I could post them in my liverjournal, because it seemed like a fun thing to do. I didn’t intend for it to go anywhere, but I kept returning to them for some reason, and before long I had a sizeable collection. The possibility of actually taking the concept seriously didn’t seem so farfetched anymore, so I decided to continue pursuing it, and now here we are.

My old comics are friendslocked now, by the way. A lot of them were pretty terrible (albeit a necessary learning process which I do not regret), and the ones which weren’t will eventually be reproduced on this site, in one form or another.

“Comical Interlude” is a stupid name.
Yeah, it made more sense when the comics were things that I would intermittently post on my liverjournal. But I never thought of anything better, and I’m kinda fond of it now.

So all your comics are named after songs or some shit?
Song titles or lyics. It’s in keeping with my power metal sensibilities (ie. hilariously cheesy and overwrought).

Oh my God you actually made Jesus a character? Have you no shame, sir?
Haha come on you know the score. It wouldn’t be a webcomic without Jesus.

Which other parts of the internet do you inhabit?
You can find me on my aforementioned liverjournal and twitter, or perhaps even my super-serious blog, and I also have a deviantART account which I don’t really use at the present time.

Have you ever drawn a guest comic for Overcompensating?
Why, yes. Yes I have.

What about Dinosaur Comics or Questionable Content?
No… not yet. I have Ideas though. ;) ;) ;) (call me)

Will you dispatch an assassination team if I crop your comics into userpics and such?
No. Like our current Avatar, I follow a philosophy of non-violence – and even if I didn’t, such a reaction would be completely disproportionate and ridiculous. I mean Jesus Christ, what kind of people do you hang out with? Americans?

Can I post one of your comics on my blog, etc?
Sure. A linkback would be appreciated, of course.

I disagree with your politics – where do I lodge my complaint?
Okay, first, take a deep breath, set aside your cognitive dissonance, and try to come to terms with the fact that you are wrong. I have already looked up all the answers in the back of the Politics book, and as such my views are unassailable. If for any reason you still require clarification on an issue, please engage your caps lock and send off an incoherent rant as quickly as possible, before you have a chance to think it through. That way I will feel much less guilty about ignoring you.

Hi! I have a cool idea for a comic you should draw/am interested in doing a link exchange/would like to hire you for a bachelor party.
No.

Non sequitur final question?
Nah, that joke is way played out now.
