WAITING
FOR CHRISTMAS
By Richard
Johnston
So what would
our favourite Tommy-ed creators wish for Christmas this year
that no one else would give them? And what would they buy
departing Marvel President Bill Jemas? Clearly I had to find
out.
Ultimates,
Millarworld, Trouble, Ultimate FF and Spider-Man writer Mark
Millar knows that Christmas comes but once a year (empties
his sack, cracks nuts, fills stockings etc) and tells us what
he really wants but that no one will give him is "Oral satisfaction".
Don't worry, I hear Mark Peyton is already on his way up.
And on his way down.
And as
to what Millar would buy Bill Jemas for Christmas, "Actually,
I DID buy Bill a Christmas present. I dazzled everyone at
the Marvel summit a couple of weeks back with a fantastic
pair of shoes Bill couldn't take his eyes off for some reason.
Thus, I ordered them in a size eleven when I got home and
Fed Ex-ed them in his general direction. I see this as payback
for the heaviest jacket I've ever owned in my life which he
bought me a couple of years ago when I showed up in New York
with only a T-shirt, a toothbrush and a copy of Planetary
to keep me warm."
Losers and Swamp
Thing writer Andy Diggle asks for just one thing. "A baby
daughter! She was due 8 days ago, but there's still no sign
of the little blighter. Clearly she's a chip off the old block
- already missing her deadlines... "
And as to what
he'd buy Bill Jemas, he links to this
Ha ha.
Joe Casey,
WildCATS writer isn't giving anything away about what he wants.
"I could tell you, Rich, but I've been sworn to secrecy."
And as to Bill, "Are you kidding? With the amount of stock
he cashed out, he should be buying US something!" Good point,
Joe. Bill? I'd like the island of Mauritus if you please.
