PAUL POPE Started a Blog

Paul Pope, creator of 100% and Batman: Year 100, has started a blog, saying doing a blog is a lot easier than revamping his official site now.

So far he has some personal diatribes and an interview transcription, not to mention the King Kong piece shown above from when Pope was five. His latest post is a personal essay on "the destruction" of comics:

One must destroy in order to create. This is a poetic notion and perhaps not properly a philosophy, however the idea suggests to me what I take to be an elemental truth of our world-- Life exists by eating other life. This sad observation is my credo. Life itself is an ignited consumption, a violence, a continuing energy exchange, sometimes conscious, sometimes unconscious, beginning with birth and ending in death, consumption, and destruction. Man is born unto trouble as the sparks fly upward.

This is the secret meaning behind the term "Comics Destroyer".
