Up for an Eisner for his work on the all-ages Archaia title Cow Boy, artist Chris Eliopoulos took a turn in the hot seat with his own unique answers to our 5 question survey…

1. When were you first inspired to make comics and what book set you on the path to becoming a creator?

It was a Fawcett Peanuts book. Charles Schulz set me on my way.

2. If you weren’t making comics right now, what other occupation would you most like to see yourself in?

Creating children’s books.

3. If you could have dinner with any other comic creator living or dead, who would it be and why?

The living one. The dead ones don’t have much to say.

4. If you could GIVE an Eisner award to another creator working today who would it be and why?

Every production person. They work long and hard for little pay and no credit.

5. If you do win, where are you going to keep the award?

In my studio, I guess.
