Juergens and Jurgens. Both deal in superheroes, and Superman? Heh. Coincidence.

: - Why are you an Indy fan?
I see myself in Indy. I guess what makes him tick is because of his humanity. He is not like the other heroes who are too goody-good. People can sympathize with him because he suffers, and feels pain, like we do. And I think that's what made me an Indyfan in the beginning.

: - What makes the myth behind heros?
The fact that heroes are supernatural beings. That's a myth. Heroes can be anyone, normal or not.

: - What other heros/non-heros/stories beside Indy do you like.
Neil Gaiman's The Sandman, J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, and the classics which, if I write them all, would be too long.

: - Are there any parallels between your prefered fictional charcters.
None, I think. I mean, they are only the same in the sense that they are heroes, and they do heroic stuff. I mean, take for example Dream in The Sandman. He is vastly different than say, Spiderman. I don't care so much about the characters than the stories they tell.

: - What are your other hobbies?
Writing stories, drawing, reading books, playing video games.
