Sigh. Remembering that epic drama always makes me sad. I haven't really hung out on the new S_D as much, and I miss all the in-jokes. (Ah, El Dragon and your fiendish nemesis, The Stove!)

But even more because it was the first time I'd really heard of PAD, and I thought he sounded like an epic, awful douche. And when I went to Dragon*Con that year, showing my portfolio around, I was leery about talking to him at all. But he'd also done the Shatterstar/Rictor thing, and even not knowing a lot about it, I knew that was a pretty big deal (what, a believable gay romance with build-up and payoff in a superhero comic, as opposed to "look, here's another gay dude, now you can date"?!).

So I did. And holy cats, he was so freaking nice. He was encouraging and exciting and funny, and he even got me a chance to have George Perez look at my portfolio. But mostly, he was just plain nice.

So it makes me sad that that incident, which really spun out of control very, very quickly, colors some fan-opinion of him. I know if I hadn't talked to him, I probably would have written off picking up any of his books as being "by that jerk" and I would have missed out on some stellar stories. I think between that and the Liefield baiting, he's a good guy in person, but maybe a bit crankier on the internet.

He's definitely crankier on the internet, and has done assorted stupid things in the past, but I agree he's actually pretty funny and personable offline.

Sums him up nicely, yes.
