I’m not a big crossover person, I’ll be honest. I try to keep ‘Hellcat’ separate from the larger Marvel world because I want it to be a book anyone can read, not just a hardcore comics fan. Kate Leth Read Quote
I hope ‘Hellcat’ is picked up again in years to come by people who realize just how queer it is: not just in its characters but its sensibility. Kate Leth Read Quote
I would love ‘Patsy’ to join the ranks of superhero comics that have something for everybody and are new-reader-friendly, with an adventure every issue. Kate Leth Read Quote
My favorite comics show the real-life struggles of heroes as well as the fantastical. Kate Leth Read Quote
I love romance stories; I’ve been working on ‘School Spirit’ over at Rosy Press, which is sort of a modern take on a classic romance comic – so I’m clearly a fan! Kate Leth Read Quote
I’m so attached to Patsy and her crew, and to the adventures we’ve taken them on. Kate Leth Read Quote
Most of my favorite fictional couples are distinctly different. Light and dark, good and evil, boring and wild… whatever! They’re more fun to experience and definitely more fun to write. You have all these levels, and you know they’re not going to react to situations the same way. Kate Leth Read Quote
I like all of the books I work on to be ones you can pick up without knowing the entire history of the character, because then, not only can you enjoy it as is, but it encourages you to look into the history of that character and their world. Kate Leth Read Quote
There are things that I don’t like to talk about directly. There are relationships that I am in and have been in that I’ve written about in a slightly more abstract way, talking about how it affected me but not so much dealing with the other people involved. Kate Leth Read Quote
