BENDIS:
But as far as the guessing game of who is or isn’t and that stuff – there’s nothing about that that isn’t fun to me. And I know that there are a number of people all over online that have decided what they would like out of this. They have written it in their head – particularly, they have decided upon which character they would like to be a Skrull or not to be a Skrull.
Let’s say someone has already decreed in their head that Rocket Raccoon is a Skrull. Let’s say that Rocket Raccoon turns out not to be a Skrull. That equals in their head that I suck, and that will be that for the rest of their lives. I know that, and there’s nothing I can do about that. I can just get a little Zen about it. But even those people who are screaming for my head – they really are having a good time. They’re getting a lot of fun for the few bucks or whatever they’ve put into this so far. I learned a couple of years ago that it’s a game. If you don’t enjoy the game, or can’t handle the game, just don’t be a part of it, you know? But I can handle it pretty well. I enjoy the back and forth. I enjoy the conspiracy theories and all the back and forth.
But my entire summer will be variations on the Rocket Raccoon example, my entire summer.
And I do feel bad – there are people out there who are really big, big fans of certain characters that, since I’ve been writing them, have been just really nice to me, and I know they’re about lose their shit on me. And I feel bad. I’ve felt bad all year. There are some guys whoa re fans of characters that, all year long, have been on my board and just couldn’t be nicer and defend me at every turn, but it was already locked in…
