O’Shea: Many critics have already heaped vast amount of praise on the book, but how pleasantly surprised were you by just how enthusiastically David Brothers has supported the project? It’s hard to top praise like “If it had come out in 2009, Parker: The Hunter, Asterios Polyp, and Pluto would’ve suddenly been part of a Top 4, instead of a Top 3.”

Rugg: I’ve been very surprised by the response. It’s hard to tell how anyone’s going to react to your work. As the co-creator, I can’t judge it in any way objectively. You just do what you think is best. So far, the response has overwhelmed me. It’s been much better and more enthusiastic than I ever imagined it might be. And for those who have taken time to endorse the book with positive reviews and word of mouth, I want to thank you. We’ve received really good reorders from stores and Diamond, and I’m confident that is a result of people like David Brothers who have really voiced their support and gotten behind the work.
