adventure artist superhero
Imagine, 24 pages of superhero adventures produced by the same writer and artist every month!! How did they do it? (What? By being professional about it? But that's too much like work!)

people way defeat
I have no interest in anybody's life that way so it defeats me why people go to that length to pry.
