"The circumstances could be more pleasant. You never want to take over a book when people leave on not the best terms, but the character is so rich and I'm such a huge fan of everything Greg [Rucka] and Haden and J.H. -- especially J.H. -- have done on that book, that I'm not going in to rearrange everything and say, 'Everything that went on before is bad. I'm going to fix it.' I want to do right by the character, and the character that they have done … I've got to say, the reaction on the Internet -- I expected to be vilified, and drawn and quartered, and I've only been called 'gay Uncle Tom' by about three websites, so statistically, I'm ahead of the game. Statistically, the Internet's been great to me."
