How in the world do you remember all this stuff?

Hello Mr. Davis.

It seems every time someone asks you a question, you have very thorough and descriptive answers. And it's terrific and I know I appreciate it.

I know a lot of my questions are asked about Excalibur and I think it's been around 10 years since that comic was first published. And yet you have all sorts of background info that I am usually seeking.

So as the title asks, just how do you remember all this stuff?

Sorry to hear the wrist is still giving you trouble. I know I for one will miss not seeing your talents published as often as I'm sure all would like.

Hope things get better in the future.

Jim

Hi Jim

I have a pretty good memory for everything except names. Aside from that, although a reader may spend a few hours reading and re-reading a comic the creators are living with each issue for weeks, or months, worrying over all sorts of insignificant details, so it isn't easy to forget.

All the best

Alan
