mickey-clausen-interceptorThe7Deadly   Questions


What was your favorite project to work on and why?mickey-clausen-toy-story-cv01
Toy Story because my grandchildren were going crazy over the movies and they thought it was super cool that their granddad worked on the comics.
 

What Title or Character do you have a need to work on?
 Captain America since he’s my favorite character.

Do you think there are to many comic book properties being mickey-clausen-02-marvel-cvconverted into Movies and TV shows that are  lowering  the value of Comic book creators or is just finally our time? ?
I think it’s our time, people are finally looking at what we create as actually having a value in entertaining people. 

DO you feel that women havmickey-clausen-blackhawk-cve become equals in the comic book industry?
Yes and no. We need more of them in the industry. 
 

How have you handled negativity towards your work?
 Just shrug it off and move on, people have their own version of what they like and want, it’s their right. You can’t please everyone and I respect their choices.

Do you think a Creator has to sell out to be able to make it to the top, somewhere somehow they have to give up something to get to the top?mickey-clausen-fathom
No, they never should give up what they believe in. 

What is a mistakes have you made that our reader can learn to side step from you?  
Don’t devalue what you do. 

mickey-clausen-mickey-cv2mickey-clausen-foj3-cvrWell done  Mickey you have moused your way around The 7 Deadly Questions tell us whats next on your creative journey:
Right now I am co-writing two ideas that I have had kicking around for a few years now, “Iron Diplomacy” and “MetalKill”. I will be inking, coloring, and lettering both of them, debating on maybe pencilling also. A third idea in the works is a book that will be called “Snatch & Grab”. I will be also creating a series of children books with one of my granddaughters in the coming year. Currently I am also inking and coloring a “Pitt Crew” story for Advent Comics, coloring a “Dr Who” story for Vang Enterprises, Coloring “PhantomHawk” for Guerrilla Comics, also coloring on “Biting Bullets” and “Captain Pauite” and inking an issue of “Lightning Squirrel”, and coloring “Warwolf” for Markosia. All this on top of teaching comic production classes at my studio (MindWinder Studios) and a 3D Animation class, a  Contemporary Design class and a Multimedia class at a local high school. Looking at SDCC for next year and some southern California Comic Cons this upcoming year ( have to figure out a schedule)mickey-clausen-mermaid
