I don't know how the MTV Multiplayer staff connect up with the makers of the World of Warcraft comic, but they continue to have amazing level of access to the talented folks behind the book. We've previously noted their special online-only #0 issue, and the gangbuster success of issue #1. This week they have up an interview with the penciller on the project, Ludo Lullabi.
Because of the nature of the interview subject, much of the discussion centers around getting the 'feel' of Azeroth right. Lullabi also describes his efforts to make the players happy by representing the world they care about as best he can. His work stems from "passion more than fear" (of getting it wrong), and sometimes loses sight of the millions of players who inhabit the reality he draws.
It's a great look behind the scenes of a comic that's shaping up really nicely. If you haven't been following along via your friendly local comic shop, the site's previews of Issue 1, Issue 2, and Issue 3 are all worth checking out.
