I’ve been a long time fan of Neil. He is now in my list of people when you start a new job, they ask you “if you could have dinner with three people, living or dead, who would they be?” Hands-down Neil would be one along with Robin Williams, Hunter S. Thompson, and Hemingway, because I’m greedy. Of course, there are many others we could throw in for fun.

Genius. Very interesting man. Would love to talk to him. His knowledge base is incredible. I’m reading Sandman for the first time. What an amazing piece of work.

[@jimonmars1]

what a great interview! Connect STL, one thing you need to think about. The audio is too quiet on this clip. The youtube ads BLARE LIKE SCREAMING MOTHERFUCKERS when listening to this clip. Please Fix!!

For goodness sake, you’re getting this for free. Buy premium if you hate ads so much.

[@HomeAtLast501]

I called it --- I said on another video that he felt like an imposter.

[@lampad4549]

17:28 Can somebody fact check that?

[@twinblade63]

lol. not necessary - we know its false.

[@lizziebkennedy7505]

You just cant stand it hey? Do the research you weakling.

[@lizziebkennedy7505]

@@twinblade63no, you don’t. Read the industry website. Read the data. Read about all the women who wrote in the comic industry in the 1940s, Patrica Highsmith amongst them. Are you really so scared of chicks?

[@StrangeSignal]

Women are not that into comics. Martin is a silly grub for that.

[@lizziebkennedy7505]

Wow, you are ignorant. Do some damn research

[@FunkyLittlePoptart]

Women like comics just fine. They don't like being gatekept by misogynistic idiots with tiny peens.
