The A.V. Club took some time out to sit down with Chicago Bears linebacker Lance Briggs about what makes him happy --- comics.
AVC: What titles do you read right now?
LB: My favorite comic right now is The Darkness. To me, it's just a great story. He's got great powers, and his interactions are just pretty cool. He's got issues where he fights Superman, and Lara Croft, Witchblade, things like that — it's just pretty cool.
AVC: Are you more of an Image guy than a Marvel or DC guy?
LB: Yeah, more into the Image and Top Cow stuff now. I got into that when I was in high school, when Image was fairly new, and Spawn, Shadowhawk, Wildcats, Stormwatch, all of these storylines were very appealing to me. Of course, I'm still a Marvel fan—I still pick up X-Men and Spider-Man. I pick up DC, as well—I get Justice League, Green Lantern, stuff like that. But by far, Top Cow and Image stuff is my favorite.
AVC: Have you ever given any thought to making comics of your own?
LB: Well, actually, I'm working on some comics right now for Top Cow. I've got the opportunity to meet [Top Cow founder] Marc Silvestri, which I'm just stoked about. I'm really excited to meet him. So I'm taking some time, putting together some characters. Hopefully they like it.
