Awesome, if a bit short, episode. Most of the major issues and arcs of his run was covered. All those untold stories he mentioned sounded great, especially the ones about Carnage and the Hypno Hustler! I miss his style of writing and I hope he gets another run.

[Donomark]

Paul Jenkins wrote what I think are some of the best Spider-Man stories in recent years, and this interviewed just reaffirmed how our personal views on the character coincide. He sounded extremely earnest in making Spider-Man the best he could be and the editorial mandates during his Spectacular run makes sense considering how his PPSM run differed in quality.

I wish with all my heart that editorial would let the writers write. His Peter Parker run is, quite possibly, my favorite run on a Spider-Man title.

Great interview Brad. I love Jenkins thoughtful take on the characters. Sounds like we missed out on a lot of fun issues because of editorial issues.

[DarkKnightJared]

I don't remember reading a lot of his run, but after hearing, "at one point, Peter tries a run as a stand-up comedian," I know I have to read it all now. The only things that sound more awesome then what he got to do was what he couldn't do.

Good episode, great interview.

Brad, I doff my cap. that was a great interview. Just catching up on a ton of 'casts. This is my favourite creator interview in some time. It's up there with Sal Buscema IMO.
I really think the powers that be should give Jenkins the reins of Amazing/Superior when Dan Slott eventually finishes his run. I think the change in style/direction would be fascinating. If not get him a satellite title with a superstar artist.

I have the video of this. I need to edit it and put it up on youtube.
