From prose to comics pros: The New York Times focuses on novelists-turned-comics writers Michael Chabon, Greg Rucka and Brad Meltzer:

"Writing comic books is 'the ultimate 11-year-old fantasy,' Mr. Meltzer said. 'When they first offered me the job, I was going to say no, but my wife said to me, "Moron, you've been waiting your whole life for this." As always, my wife was a lot smarter than me.'"
