Those were the days!
Reading that list illustrates how many more Marvel titles -- back then -- that I wanted to read and would comfortably pay for compared to today. Loathe as I am to say it, a lot of Marvel product is unreadable and expensive.

During Your Internship.
While you were working there, how many of these titles did you actually work on? What was the most responsibility you were given as an intern?

Looking at that list really makes me want to spend money.

The Spread
It doesn't seem all that different to me at all. The number of X books is similar (8 ongoing to 10), Spider-Man's the same, and the Heroes is around the same.

I guess what is different comes under the licensed stuff, although that's changed with the Dabel brothers.

What differences am I not seeing that you are Tom?

Tom,

I was reading the first essential volume of Dr. Strange and I was wondering whether or not something like a two-in-one book would work today? Not an anthology, which I know do pretty bad usually, but a two-in-one book. Would that work?

GROO!
Man,
I miss Groo. I laughed so so hard at those books. "I think I erred." Still gets me!

Would Groo be pro or anti reg?

Groo
Groo is back at Dark Horse this year, all the TPBs back in print and a Groo/Conan crossover.

I'm really enjoying a lot of Marvel output right now. More than I did back then. Civil War, NewUniversal, NextWave, Criminal, Powers, She Hulk, Astonishing X-Men, Black Panther, Spider-Man Reign, Ultimates, all works for me.

dr doom and dr strange ...
...was definetely the books that made me want to make comics-books, the story was just wonderful ( plus unknowns sorcerers) and Mike Mignola doesn't draw like this anymore (alas ) and it would have been nothing if there wouldn't have been such a colorist I don't remember.
Just yesterday reading an interview of Michael Oeming coz I'm Omega concern, and I saw a wonderful drawing of Shaman and Talisman who make me dream about shamanic tales (Oeming refers himself to the Salmon of Knowledge who is actually, a good friend of mine too)
