A Warning Jimmy

The7Deadly  Questions

taught the Ripper everything he knew…

---

To write a comic about a serial killer did you do any research on serial killers?
“I’ve always been fascinated by serial killers. I spent a lot of time in my late teens reading nothing but literature on them and since then its boiled over into writing about them.”

---

Do you have a morbid fascination with serial killers and do you consider yourself a fan of one of them?
“I wouldn’t consider myself a fan. I just love to get into their head. They have a different sense of what is acceptable and that’s what I find so interesting.”

---

Do you think serial killers will soon be called terrorists?
“No, terrorists usually commit one act and then kill themselves. Serial Killers like the fame and notoriety. They revel in it.”

---

In a day and age of sex being ever where and every one being very active why do you think sex is such a motivator of violence??
“Having sex with someone is an incredibly intimate thing to do. It can lead to being open in a way not all people are comfortable with. I think thats why it can lead to violence.”

---

DO you think the punishments for laws breakers is an adequately deterrent for people from committing crimes?
“No, not at all. We live in a world where a guy can rape a girl and completely ruin their life but only get 6 months jail time. How can that even be a thing?”

---

DO you think Greed is the root cause of the worlds suddenly violent out break or is it something deeper?
“No, I think it goes a lot deeper. We live in a world where the most corrupt people are politicians and bankers. Where the police can be seen murdering innocent people. Where people believe a media which just sends out fear and spreads hatred into the world. We live in a seriously messed up time and everyone has access to it 24/7.”

---

What was the worst serial killer movie every made and why?
“I thought Wolf Creek was horrendous, they kept going on about it being a true story but none of the girls survived to tell the tale. If it was just a regular horror film without all that true story shit I would have enjoyed it a lot more but I just kept thinking, “How the fuck do they know?” and it pulled me out the film. When a film relies on tension as heavily as it did, you have to be able to stay in the moment.”

Well done James McCullochyou  you have The 7 Deadly Questions spooked so take a paragraph to tell us why we what you are working on now and what cons we can find you at if any :

Issue 5 of City of Lost Souls is currently in production. I have issue 2 of Little Girl Black coming out in September with issue 3 hitting the shelves in November. I’m looking at putting the trade together for it just now but that’s just in the planning stages right now. I’m co-editing and have an ongoing story (Karyn Shade) in the new monthly anthology series Comichaus which starts this month.
Other than that I’m working on a horror one shot with Dan Charnley and numerous other scripts. I like to keep busy. It took me a while to start writing comics so I’m going to have as much fun as I can while I’m here.

My next few conventions are MCM Scotland, Fort Con in Fort William, and Thought Bubble.

Thank you for your time

James McCulloch
