Larsen's Image: ICv2.com has a few questions for Image Comics publisher Erik Larsen about the company's plans for Free Comic Book Day, and how his new job is going:

"It's a lot of fun, and it's just cool to be able to do this.

"You know, I love comics; I'm a comic book fan, I show up at my store on Wednesday every week. They don't have a pull slot. I buy stuff off the shelf and talk to the people who are working at the store and all the rest. I like the idea of being able to get the books off the rack and not have it be that it's all taken care of for me. I like browsing. I like looking for stuff. Then when I miss issues, scrambling to fill in those gaps is just part of being a comic book fan, I guess."
