Zitat des Tages von Chris Wooding:
'Malice' wasn't about horror to start with but an underground comic driven by the power of rumour. However, as nothing fuels a rumour like fear, I decided that it had to be a frightening comic.
I have a great affection for comics, and I think that people underrate comics as a genre.
We relate comics to the main super-heroes, but it's a great medium through which all sorts of stories are told.
I like writing comic pages, discovering the rhythm of the panels, learning how much you can and can't express. It's good to stretch myself as a writer instead of always doing prose work; I write screenplays for the same reason.
There was a big horror boom in the '80s, and I liked its originality and what you could get away with.
I hate SF books that think all you need to make a book is cool technology and mind-bending ideas without a decent plot or characters. And I hate when fantasy books are allowed to ramble off into five hundred page diatribes which don't advance the story one bit.
