The people from 'The State' are close friends, but also some of the most incredibly funny people I know.

I hope that I have gained the reputation of being someone that would do anything. I think that that's an admirable reputation to have if you're an actor.

You surround yourself with amazing, grade-A talent, and you're going to have to lift your game. You kind of thrive just by being around such people.

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.

Shaft was a pop culture figure along t he lines of, I guess, Dirty Harry - except that he wasn't as much of a racist. So yeah, I was always a fan.

I am thrilled to get the chance to write comics - and to tell Forgotten Realms tales, to boot!
