Matt Fraction is my hero.

Just days after learning that I needed to keep my eye on Matt Fraction, I read this quote from an interview with him at Newsarama on what he learned in 2006.

“Most of all, I feel like I’ve learned that if you treat whatever readership you’re blessed with like co-conspirators, rather than passive consumers, rather than slack-jawed yokels aching for spoon after spoon of bloody obvious, you’ll find that almost all of them that bother to contact you — 95% of ‘em, at least — will love you for it. I’ve learned comics audiences are tired of being treated as if they put the low in lowest common denominator.”

I think we've found a winner with this Fraction fellow.
