CHUCK PALAHNIUK: WritingBait, I realized that anything described as white is antithetical to a coloring book.
InLegacy, everything gets a color.
And if appropriate, a pattern.
Youve worked in comics withFight Club 2.
What would you say are the differences between working on comics and working on these kinds of coloring books?
The majority of panels are smaller and contain only enough detail to pace the action and dialog.
These become the illustrations we pass back and forth, suggesting additional elements until were all satisfied.
The use of the coloring pages allows some reader participation in the stories theyre reading.
Isnt that the core nature of stories themselves?
To reflect the reader?
What can you tease about what readers can expect from the illustrations in this one?
That said, they add a child-like quality of innocence to a sometimes brutal story.
