Writer/artist Jhonen Vasquez has what you could call an unconventional💙 path to success, but like his hit characte🍒rs and , it works for him. 

After a self-imposed hiatus from comics, he returns this August for the comic book finale of Oni-Lion Forge Publishing Group's Invader Zim series with the one-shot 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Invader Zim: Dookie Loop Horror. Given that rꦯeturn, we asked 🐠Vasquez if more comic book work is in his future.

"I've always got ideas for stuff, some that make more sense for comics♛ than others, but more so than comics specifically I just can't ꩲhelp but have stories happening in my head that I'd love to get out of said head," Vasquez tells Newsarama.

After making a name for himself in comics with Johnny the Homicidal Maniac back in the late '90s, Vasquez segued to a career in animation highlighted by the cult-favorite Invader Zim. But since cartoons are more of a grou🐟p effort as opposed to the relatively individualistic efforts of comics, is it something he misses? 

"Comics is its own kind of nightmare, but the Invader Zim comics have mostly been relaxing for me, a fun divers𒁏ion from the real nightmares elsewhere," Vasquez says. "It's been really cool getting to almost be an observer in this alternate reaꦫlity of a world I made up so long ago. One of the best parts has been seeing other people's takes on my characters, which is weird but also keeps things interesting and new for me."

After Invader Z▨im: Dookie Loop Horror goes on sale in August, Vasquez has ideas for new projects in comics, animation, but also in the realm of live-actionꩲ filmmaking and video games - but it's all been affected by the pandemic.

"With the world having shut down for various plagues lately, I'vꦇe mostly gone into a low power idea incubating mode, trying not to feel like I HAVE to work but just enjoying dreaming up ideas for the sake of being in these other places in my head," he says.

"Who knows when one of t🧸hose things will take over and turn into the next big obsession, but trying not to think about it is all part of the process I gu🔴ess. I'd love to do something live-action as well as some more limited series type animation work, and maybe finally get going on a video game."

Considering the unusual career path Vasquez has had, we asked him for advice on behalf of the potential others who w𓆉ere like him in the early '90s, just getting their start in comics here in 2021.

"I'm terrible at advice considering my own version of ‘making it' is so particular to me, so I can only say what I HOPE would apply to other people, and that's that I hope other people are genuinely in love with what they do, in love with the ideas and worlds in their heads instead of thinking of their talent as a means to success in 'the business,'" Vasquez s🌃ays.

"I've never enjoyed being surrounded by that kind of atmosphere; the kind of thing where it's about business more so than b🐭ringing crazy🍒 stuff into as much of an existence as possible for the sake of showing yourself and other people something different," he continues. "That's my advice: just be cool, don't be soulless husks, not that everyone can help it."
