Interview with Steven Prouse
[6]Coin Operated Boy
This month, Arcana will preview an interview conducted by Zedura Magazine EIC,
Erik Hendrix with Coin Operated Boy creator, Steven Prouse. For the full
interview, be on the lookout for the first issue of Zedura!
EH: Let's start at the beginning... What was the first comic you ever read and
how did it influence you?
SP: I was actually introduced to comics characters at a very young age through
my childhood babysitter - the television. However, I really became a comics
reader with Batman #455. That was the beginning of the story arc where Batman
fought Scarecrow ending with Tim Drake officially the new Robin. Having known
of the characters for years in their television format, this story arc really
showed me how very much alive and dynamic these characters still were and it
really made me want to explore comics more.
EH: When did you get into creating comics? What was the catalyst?
SP: I was 9 when I created my first comic.Notebook paper and black, blue and
red ballpoint pens and I had twin sons of a dead planet. Superstar (a five
pointed star with a red cape) and Badstar (a five pointed star with blue cape),
battling for the fate of Earth.
I filled a note pad with their adventures. Nothing amazing, but the creation of
those stories really took me to places far away from real life - which is
exactly what I needed at the time.
In high school I found a muse of a friend who also loved creating comics.
We bounced ideas off one another and developed great worlds of fantasy and
shared them with others. While those worlds are forever filed in the back of my
head, they really helped me develop my love for telling stories.
To read the rest of the interview, be on the lookout for the first issue of
Zedura Magazine coming soon from Arcana!
