Interview: Michael Avon Oeming & Victor Santos - Project Monarch - Out October 18, 2023

1. Project Monarch is complex, yet reads effortlessly, where did this crazy journey about conspiracy theories and film directors start for you and Victor Santos?
2. A few sci-fi classics are referenced like Valis and The Matrix, plus we have a main character that’s a kind of modernization of Stanley Kubrick, why was film such an important part of this graphic novel?
3. At one point Stanley points out he left room in his films for folks to create their own story, have you found fans of your other comics work doing this? 
4. How do you feel if they go down the wrong path?
5. Do you have a favorite conspiracy?
6. I found it interesting Stanley is a director of films, and later a director of assassins, do you think there’s any similarities in these kinds of work?
7. If someone were to direct the TV or movie adaptation of Project Monarch, who would it be and why?
8. The end seems to suggest a new battle is coming, could a sequel be in the works?
