albeit asks bound gather help secret seven shade stop together war woman wonder
Any team that has Shade as their leader is bound to have a pretty directionless quality. But when Cyborg asks Shade to gather the Secret Seven together and help him stop the war between Wonder Woman and Aquaman, Shade agrees - albeit reluctantly.
change changes time work
Work changes over time, as you change and the world changes.

What 'Flashpoint' does is examine the inherent inconsistencies in Shade's past and attempt to explain it and give it some logic.
venom
Venom first made his appearance some years ago in a Spider-Man book, and was a huge best-seller.
I'm working on a new creator-owned series for Vertigo called 'The Discipline.'

I love Tike Alicar, The Anarchist. But I love Edie Sawyer, U-Go Girl, too. I was a little in love with her.

'The Names' is a story about a woman who might feel that she's in a kind of maze. She's unable to find her way forward or out because she can't see the whole picture.

luxury survival morality
Morality is a luxury we can't afford out here. There's no right or wrong, just survival or death.
All we have, all we are, are clichés.
mad
I'm not mad. I'm a writer.
