Comix - Chris Ware on French Television, 2005 (Part 3 of 3)

i mean what the f°°°? we get like 6 torrent for the latest DC or (beuuuuurk) Image output, and NOTHING.... for RAW ??? i mean, come on, it's not like fantagraphics owned the whole of it, you know it had a life of its own..... LET ME SEE THOSE RAW back issues PLEASE????

being an artist is not (necessarily) about being happy. being obsessed is a heavy burden and very demanding. it demands a lot of sacrifice. quite often artists are not fun people to be around. although i know only a little about Chris Ware it seems that he is quite obsessed with his work. it might be that he has a totally different persona away from the studio. my guess is that he doesn't and couldn't. maybe he wouldn't even want to.
all we can do is appreciate what he is doing.

look at his work... its so consuming. he doesnt seem like a very, spontaneous person.. hes work is so brilliant it will stand time. punk comix or painters, i dont know. i draw comics, paint, im always in a rush, i want to finish so i can get outside.. my work will never compare, so i wont even try. thats not the kind of person or work that refelects me is all im saying. to each his own

Pal you rock for uploading this interview. keep the good job

Immensive thanks to adamkempa for providing this interview on YouTube!

I was fortunate to meet Chris. he spoke at my comics class in college. he was actually a lot more witty and funny in person. he didnt shy away from people. I feel very fortunate.

well stated.
