Hey guys,
Check out this new awesome interview with comics superstar Ed Brubaker (http://www.comicfoundry.com/modules/wfsection/article.php?articleid=285). He talks about writing X-Men and his new book coming out, Criminal.
I want it to read like X-Men, not like me. I try to get into the voice of any company-owned book I write, instead of just morphing them into my voice. Generally, there's some balance found between that, but with team books, it's all about the characters, and creating these wildly over the top plots, not gritty pulp noir or espionage, so you bring a different part of your writing brain to it.
