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...
