Sometimes, we can go far away from the comic book story, but often we ultimately serve the comic book story. And even when we go far away from it, we 're inspired by it - and the novels as well. And then beyond that, all of the great stuff that we have consumed along the way, from zombie movies to Star Wars to other comics to really highbrow movies like The Grand Illusion to Jaws. And also really, world history. The plague storyline was inspired by both Camus ' The Plague and other stories about the plague I heard in Edinburgh. But really, it starts with the comic book.
