This is why communication is so important. CJ and I PMed about her and my characters. We found out what we needed to know about each and were able to write without screwing up each others' plans or characters. I also like that it gave that Valiant Comics feel of characters from different books having cameos just because they happened to be close to each other but not really interact.



Just as a note -- I really never understand anyone's comic writer references. "Jackie, that's so Grant Morrison of you!" For the record, please translate statements like that.



To clarify further, Valiant Comics in the early 90's had a habit of having characters in close proximity to each other, but never meet or interact. For instance, occassionally you'd see a character or characters from another book pass in the background, but never interact in the story. In the other book with those characters, you'd see the same situation from their prospective while they're doing their mission or whatnot. My favorite is an issue of Shadowman where he's on a road trip and stops in a diner in the midwest. Turok the Dinosaur Hunter walks by to leave after eating his pancakes or some-such.

It tends to put you immediately at a disadvantage and IMO is a sign of true weakness.
This is true both in politics and on the internet."
