Weekly Q&A with Joe Quesada

Over at Newsarama the weekly question and answer article with Marvel Editor-in-Chief Joe Quesada has some more info on Jeph Loeb and Joe Madureira's upcoming 12 issue Ultimates Volume 3 run.

Here's some excerpts from the interview:

In recent discussions with Jeph, that very same subject came up, Jeph pitched me the idea of him and Mads, and I thought it was brilliant, but I was more than certain that Joe had no interest in coming back to comics.

What I love about it is that Jeph and Joe are going to bring a completely different sensibility to the book while still respecting whatÃ‚’s come before.

B is fantastic for going back over lines, darkening , and adding weight to your lines. Basically, ‘inking’ with a pencil. **Just keep a sheet of scrap paper under your hand or you will smudge the shit out of your drawing!!!** HB suits my needs 99% of the time. Really no need to switch it out, just adjust your pressure. Harder or...
