Segment: Interview - Jordan Blum on M.O.D.O.K.: Head Games Head Games (first two issues out)

1. Modok Head Games has been fun, funny, and action-packed. What is your scripting process like with Patton Oswalt?
2. Do you think MODOK is a relatable character?
3. What does every MODOK story need?
4. Scott Hepburn has been extraordinary in making the book funny and fun, when it comes to comedic timing how do you approach the scripting for the comic?
5. On the reverse side, how do you approach comedic timing and comedy when writing the upcoming Hulu show?
6. Is there a chance we could get more MODOK comics?
7. I have to ask...if MODOK has a family, does that mean MODOK has the ability to make babies? Have you guys thought about that aspect?
8. After MODOK, what is your #1 series you’d like to write (with or without Oswalt)
9. SUPERFIGHT: Modok vs. Dazzler
