Craig Yoe interviews the excellent illustrator Mitch O'Connell on the Arf Lovers blog. Mitch has a new book out called Mitch O'Connell: Tattoos.
Mitch, what is you first comic book experience?
My first experience professionally (kinda) drawing comics was around 1980. Charlton comics was accepting/looking for folks to do covers and stories. The only catch was- they weren't paying anything. Of course the thrill of seeing my stuff published greatly outweighed the lack of financial rewards! I think I ended up doing about 5 covers and a couple one or two page stories.
