have you read any of john darnielles books? i think theyre all worthwhile but devil house is also about true crime and lonely teenagers so i was curious
i have not read any of them, but i own a copy of wolf in white van + have devil house downloaded on my phone, so i intend to get to them eventually
do you answer all your questions or ignore some that are spoilery or dumb?
the latter
since so much of whn is about complicated messy characters who've done awful things but still continue to live — do you think there's a point at which someone is irredeemable? where they can't be rehabilitated or reintegrated into society? how do you think we protect others and enact justice if there are people who just simply have gone too far? love love love your work btw 💜💜💜
i think that there is some proportion of people in the world who can't or won't stop hurting others. i think if we lived in a better society there would be a lot less people like that, but presumably not none. maybe there's a way to separate those people from everyone else in an otherwise relatively non-punitive way. i'm not totally sure what a world without the status quo of mass incarceration would look like in its particulars. there are probably people smarter than me with better ideas than i would have. anyway: i don't think the suffering of perpetrators constitutes justice for victims. i think under our current system, the people who cause the most large-scale death and suffering are ceos and heads of state who get away with it completely. this is an incomplete answer to your question but it's the best one i have!
is gage specifically a chubby chaser or not
well, griffin is a beanpole, so no

no
how did milo's parents meet?
college
do you like when boys

did Milo grow up Christian or does he just have a Christian grandmother? I wasn’t raised religiously but both my parents were and I’m curious if Milo was the same way.
milo was not raised religious but his parents were
You had a moment recently where it seemed like you had self doubt about writing the comic, how do you feel about it now?
i became very depressed, as often happens to me, and i lost faith in what i was doing. i had to feel that pain and then do my best to put my head down and continue the work.
