MAAN HOUSE Interview

· List your favorite graphic novels or comics from when you were a child and talk about how

you see them as an adult.

 

When I was a kid I didn't have graphic novels, but the first ones I remember reading were the first issues of "Spawn" and the first issues of "The Crow". To this day those works serve as inspiration to me.

 

 

 

· What are some of your favorites (and why):

o Movies (Classic or Current)

o Books

o Series (TV/Streaming)

o Video Games

 

 

Among my favorite films of late are "The Witch", "Hereditary" and "Smile", because they remind me of horror classics, in terms of storytelling. As for the series, I liked "Servant" and "Them." 

A current book that I have liked is Mariana Enríquez's novel "Our Share of Night."

 

 

· List your favorite graphic novels from last year and why you like them.

 

Among the graphic novels of last year, I liked “Sgt.Rock vs the Army of dead", I'm a fan of war stories and the piece is drawn by one of my favorite artists, also I liked "Do A Powerbomb " because I love the explosion of dynamism that the artist gives to the piece.

As for what's coming up this year, I'm looking forward to Brian azzarello and Eduardo Risso's  “The Blood Brothers Mother,".

 

 

· Talk about your favorite (and least favorite) type of character to create/draw (Maan) and

create/write (Daniel).

 

I like to draw characters that reflect the darkness they have inside, which I can adapt to my dark, and noir drawing style.

 

 

 

· Is there anything else you’d like to share with readers about THE CEMETERIANS?

 

With "The Cemeterians" I was able to develop everything I like, such as the horror reflected in all those films and books that I mentioned above, I have had the pleasure of capturing all that in this work. I hope horror lovers like it!
