Do you ever feel that while writing biographies?Was it an interesting challenge to revisit moments seen in “Jack Kirby” from a different POV?What went into laying out this story, particularly the structure, given how many sources you used, audio clips, and the like?With so many moments captured in Stan Lee’s life, did you end up cutting anything that didn’t quite work or fit?How would you describe the tonal differences between “I Am Stan” and “Jack Kirby?”You capture so many key moments in Stan Lee’s life, was there a particular scene that was hard to capture visually, or story wise?I Am Stan is so dense and detailed, how long have you been crafting this book, and how quickly were you finishing pages?How did your perception and understanding of Stan Lee change after finishing this work? (Possible followup: What do you hope readers will take from this about Stan?)Switching gears a bit back to Kirby. You’ve also got Jack Kirby’s Starr Warriors coming up!
