Westfield: Bloodshot faces the new danger of Black Bar. Anything you can tell us about this group?

Seeley: They’re so deep state they don’t even know their own name or who they work for. They’re the elite of the elite, and they have all of the amazing toys.

Westfield: There’s a lot going on in this first issue. how do you balance action with a lot more dialog driven sections?

Seeley: The magic of comics! The job is to give readers an even pace, and plenty to come back for, so I make sure to give the reader stuff to read and care about while also giving them plenty of Brett Booth/Adelso Corona/Andrew Dalhouse beauty!

Westfield: You’re working with artist Brett booth on the series. What can you say about your collaboration?

Seeley: It’s pretty amazing for me, a teenager in the ’90s, to work with an artist whom I followed from the beginning. I write things I think he’ll draw the hell out of and then he does it!
