Mini Biography

By popular demand, Phil Pawde for asking the questions and from Marcia Chen, we are proudly present a mini bio on a guy named Joe...

What pencils do Joe Benitez use?

    Joe usually uses HB lead, but occasionally switches to a softer #2 for things like big heads.

Where does Joe Benitez do most of his work?

     He usually works at home, where he's got his desk set up in a corner, surrounded by lots and LOTS of dollies (ok, i call them dollies, he calls them ACTION FIGURES), with tons of comics, reference books, and general trash lying everywhere...

      Sometimes he works at the studio in his office which he shares with Dave Finch and Nathan Cabrera, but not often cause it's too distracting...come to think of it, ALL OF THEM smell, damn glad they have a separate women's restroom, though i suspect the guys sometimes use it after hours....

What kind of music does Joe Benitez listen to?

    Joe listens to weird space music while working, strange college music crap, his fave working music is a program on Santa Monica College's Radio Station.

    He listens to stuff like Rammstein (they're on the Matrix soundtrack)...we were just at the Marilyn Manson concert (Dave Wohl had floor tickets, the bastard) where Marilyn fell down and couldn't get back up, the sissy.

Where does Joe Benitez by his comics?

     For you stalkers out there, Joe sometimes buys comics at The Golden Apple (in Hollywood, and Reseda)...

How long does it take Joe Benitez to pencil a page?

    Sometimes it takes Joe a week to do a page, sometimes a day...i'd give him an average of 3-4 pages a week, when working "comfortably", but today, he finished 2 pages in one day, so...

More to come...
