EIGHT QUESTIONS from MIKE CAVALLARO
What’s your favorite book that wasn’t written or drawn by you?
That’s impossible to answer. But I do love Vonnegut and Tolkien. Reading Moonshadow by J.M. DeMatteis and Jon J. Muth was one of my major inspirations to pursue comics way back when I was a youngin’. Other favs include Buddha by Osamu Tezuka, almost anything by Joann Sfar, and Thor by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. Almost anything by Kirby, really.
