Comics journalism at its finest: At UGO.com -- that's "UnderGroundOnline" for those not in the know -- contributing editor Derek Handley absolutely gushes over Devin Grayson. Because, let's face it, what's more "underground" than "Nightwing," "Smallville" and a Batman video game tie-in?
But let's get back to Derek's gushing:
"When I told a friend that I was going to interview Devin Grayson, he said: 'You lucky, lucky bastard.' This Python quoting was not motivated by the fact that he is a big fan of her writing (although, like myself, he is), but because among interviewers, Ms. Grayson is known as a great interviewee; unexpected answers, detail and mystery and lots of character analysis, just like in her books. So get ready for the psychology and allegorical meaning of the Joker, the physicality and sexuality of Nightwing and police uniforms, the difference between writing novels and writing comics, and an interview that was, as my friend predicted, a pleasure."
To Derek's credit, though, he answers the question that's dogged many a comics fan: What tune does Devin Grayson's cell phone play? (It's the "1812 Overture.")
