	The Comics Journal - 5,137 Pages of Brian Michael Bendis: Page 2
		Bendis wants his stories to look like this (with his own art, I thought the drift toward such a look was more out of necessity, dictated by what he did or didn't have photographs and photocopies of).
		Bendis left the title just as McFarlane was attempting to inject Mike Moran/Miracleman into the Spawn universe (see TCJ #241), reportedly because a portion of the book was written, rewritten or added to by a co-author without Bendis' knowledge.
		Bendis uses such matters principally as utilitarian or scandalous ingredients in routinely linear narratives.

	Encyclopedia: Bendis
		Bendis was a Thracian goddess of the hunt whom the Greeks identified with Artemis, and hence with the other two aspects of the former Minoan Triple Goddess, Hecate and Persephone.
		She was a huntress, like Artemis, but was accompanied by dancing satyrs and maenads on a 5th Century red-figure stemless cup (at Verona).
		The Athenians may have been blending the cult of Bendis with the equally Dionysiac Thracian revels of Kotys, mentioned by Aeschylus.

		It was an abortive notion, but one which Bendis claims set him on the path towards learning the basic tools of graphic narrative, especially pacing and building a story.
		Bendis clearly saw this as a great opportunity to play with visual storytelling methods, and it highlights his enthusiasm for finding new ways of breaking basic page structure without sacrificing readability.
		Yet in both words and visuals, Bendis refuses to be a slave to the source material, because the real world is not the one he wants to write about.

		Here's something funny that you may not know: When I was writing the first Kabuki story in 1993, I was not interested in drawing or doing the art.
		I actually asked Bendis to draw Kabuki and he was going to.
		Bendis also included David Mack in his comics, such as Total Sell Out, Fortune in Glory and Powers (as himself with Andy Lee and as the character Detective David Mack)

		One thing Bendis is sure will happen once the origin arc is completed: Readers will have a totally new perspective when looking at Jessica.

		While Bendis has a definite ending in mind for the series, he wont be getting to the scene for some time.

		Bendis is ready to rise up to the challenge of working on a group of heroes as opposed to one or two individuals.
		Bendis is impressed with his creative team on the arc.

		In asking Bendis if any of the stories from regular Spider-Man continuity would make their way over to the Ultimate title, Bendis stated, “Yeah, in issue #50 we’re giving a bit of a tip of the hat to the tablet story from Spidey past but that's about it for a while.
		Bendis, however, has no plans to follow a suggestion and introduce an ultimate version of a certain Marvel duck, adding that if anyone is seriously wanting to see Howard: “You need to get outside.

		Bendis: The guest artists are just coming in only for issue 65, which is a prelude to that story.

		Bendis, a 35-year-old Cleveland native who moved to Portland with his wife three years ago, is one of the most popular writers in the comics medium.
		With a stocky frame, Bendis is a bulldog of a man who looks more like a character from a Jim Thompson or Elmore Leonard novel than a comic-book writer.
		After rising through the ranks of independent comics, Bendis became one of a handful of creators who are redefining the medium at big-time publishers like Marvel and DC.

		A character with over 40 years of history is given to a writer with no regard for said history, and an obvious dislike for costumed heroes.
		In truth, Bendis' run owes everything to storylines by D. Chicester, Ann Nocenti, and Frank Miller, which will be examined shortly.
		Bendis does not regard even his own continuity.

		BENDIS: It is. Joking aside, when the writer calls me up and asks what I think about this idea or that idea- it's always fantastic and it comes to him so effortlessly that my only response is "f*&k you!" cause that's how good it is.
		If Bendis is so hell bent on killing off characters for dramatic effect, why don't he create all new characters for the Avengers, and then kill them off.

	The All-New All-Different Howling Curmudgeons: Bendis's Daredevil (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-20)
		Bendis' dialogue seems realistic at first glance, but in fact it's as stilted and artificial as any 60s DC comic, just with a thin layer of "realistic" mannerisms spread on top.
		Bendis had a chance to have Daredevil be the first street-level vigilante to say "Screw this, I'm jetting off to Rio with the Black Widow and shagging until I can't walk!") But in the end, Bendis doesn't even wait for the next creative group to come in and undo his interesting ideas...
		Bendis is fond of having his characters lecture at each other, but they often do so in ways which are themselves narratively interesting.

	The Friday Review: Alias
		Bendis and artist Micheal Gaydos designate their panels not according to what is inside them, but what is outside them.
		ALIAS doesn't suffer this problem; Bendis understands the Marvel universe perfectly even if he is giving us his unique interpretation of some characters, and his ability to create crime fiction is without question, as his track record shows.

		The second time was week or so after Bendis had gone from being a smart writer/artist known mainly for his sharply characterised crime stories to suddenly being a Big Player, the Man Who Will Revitalise/Destroy Marvel and Cur(s)e Spiderman depending which brand of net-chatter you prefer.
		In my opinion, Bendis is one of the very few writers worthy of the name in an industry awash with mediocrity, empty hype, and an obsession with its own past.
		Bendis is fascinated by what people do with their lives when they've let themselves forget that they were intending to be doing something else.

	We Never Call Bendis "God".
		For several days before WW Chicago, Bendis had been leaving teases and hints on his messageboard about a secret announcement that would be made and the nature of the announcement was revealed at Newsarama shortly before he began his Super Happy Fun Hour panel.
		Bendis then insisted it shouldn't matter, that legal reasons or corporate reasons might sound valid but Levitz' personal reason that he and Quesada did not get along should not stop Batman/Daredevil from being made and that it would be possible to get the book done without any interaction on Quesada's part.
		Bendis stated on the record that the whole gist of the story revolves around some of the Avenger's past mistakes coming back to haunt them, which is kind of vague, honestly, but Bendis hopes to "blow up the status quo" and deliver "a Shakespearean-level tragedy that uses the Avengers’ history to propel them forward."

		From what I saw, Bendis' appreciation of his fans amounts to him ignoring all of the ones who criticize his work and making fun of them to the delight of those who love his work unconditionally.
		But then Bendis came in and declared that he never would've asked Finch to own up to his mistake.
		I heard that CM's "waves of discontinuity" or whatever it was called explanation was used in one of the recent MU handbooks to explain something (might have Absorbing Man related).

		As for Mary Jane, Bendis says that we haven't seen the last of the effects of her near encounter with death at the hands of the Green Goblin.
		Bendis is quick to point out, however, that he only wrote the pilot and that the way it works in television is that if the pilot is picked up, then the writer gets ongoing credit for the rest of the series.
		Bendis has gotten a bit of flack for using Wolverine in his opening arc, but promises that the rest of the X-Men are going to show up next issue, and that 'Blockbuster' was largely about him finding his feet.

	NEWSARAMA - BENDIS: LOOKING AHEAD AND BACK AT DAREDEVIL
		Four years ago, an up-and-coming writer named Brian Michael Bendis was given one of his first assignments at Marvel Comics as he took over writing duties for Daredevil.
		Almost 50 issues later, Bendis has clearly claimed the title as his own, redefining the character with artist Alex Maleev's realistic, dark imagery and establishing Daredevil as the central comic in the edgy Marvel Knights line.
		I'm sorry I'll miss Bendis at this year's Emerald City Comic-Con, but I hope to catch him in '06 and congratulate him in person on a spectacular run on Daredevil.

		Bendis first got significant attention with his noir thriller AKA Goldfish from Caliber in 1995, at the same time that the publisher was making a name for itself with such projects as David Mack's Kabuki and Joe Pruett's anthology Negative Burn.
		Jinx, Bendis' follow-up to Goldfish and the series (and character) that became his trademark - his website can be found at www.jinxworld.com - continued at Image in the form of a miniseries and one-shot specials.
		Bendis' initial Daredevil arc is only now seeing print, but that job and his solo work led Quesada and Marvel president Bill Jemas, who tapped Que-sada last year to revitalize Marvel as its editor-in-chief, to approach Bendis as writer of the new Ultimate line.

		Brian Michael Bendis obviously wanted to write crime drama comics, but was a little trapped by the omnipresence of Superheroes.
