I like making things. It’s why I love doing comicbooks at Image Comics, in particular, where you have the most control of the actual making of the thing. I wanted that same kind of completely immersive experience when it came to this movie — that’s why I made sure I was a producer so I would be. And I certainly was involved.

It had its world premiere at the LA Film Festival in June 2016.
