Phantom success: Nashville City Paper profiles local artist Mitchell Breitweiser, who illustrates Image Comics' Phantom Jack:

"I've pretty much known from the start that I wanted to be an artist, and that led me to doing comic art. And with comics, you aren't really limited - comics can be anything from a superhero story to a fantasy story to a real world story like Phantom Jack. I was fascinated that I had the chance to one day be drawing a scene out of Times Square in New York City and the next day I could be drawing a space scene with aliens and space ships blowing each other up. It's just a really cool aspect of the medium, there's a total variety."
