Meth has teamed with with Hachette Publishing to do a graphic novel called….uh…”Method Man.” (durr..lol) And my girl Grace Hernandez slipped me an early copy. Its kind of engaging, if not a lil’ all over the place. But since we’ve already established that I like fantasy/sci-fi type stuff, I’m not that surprised. I mean…its about a black ninja priest reluctant hero with a chip on his shoulder. Whats not to like ; )

Here are some interesting quotes….

Is this something you’d like to do more of in the future?
Yeah! I’m already trying to write my next one. But I’m trying to write it myself, and then [I’ll] bring a writer in to bang out the kinks.

Can you tell us anything about where you’re going with that?
I’m working on my first superhero team. But this superhero team is definitely expendable. In every issue it’s new people.

I read that a couple of the other Wu-Tang guys, Ghost and GZA, are working on graphic novels too — is that right?
Yeah.

Do you know anything about those projects?
No, I don’t know anything about their books. But I know they don’t really know anything about the comic-book genre. Neither one of ‘em. I don’t know why they even jumped into it like that. I guess they’re getting their feet wet in a little bit of everything. We’ll see when the product is done. Maybe it’ll be better than mine.

So you see yourself as the true comic-book believer in the Wu?
Absolutely. If you’d seen my collection, you would know.

How many comics do you have in your collection?
I can’t count [them all], man. But it has to be over 25,000.

lol at Meth being a curmudgeon. He sounds off on bad comic-book movies, and talks about his Red n Meth project after the jump. For the entire article and a preview of the graphic novel click here.

As a big fan, what do you think of all the comic-book movies this summer? You mentioned Iron Man, there’s the new Incredible Hulk…
I think they’re prostituting the game. I won’t mention any names, because some of these studios I’m planning on working with in the future. But it’s like they sacrifice storyline for time and seats in the movie theater, you know? If you’re trying to appeal to 13-year-olds and 12-year-olds, that’s cool — make a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie! Which they did, and I liked that movie. But the real fanboys, we’re Generation X-ers. We’re in our mid-to-late 30s now. And we’re not going to sit there — knowing the origin of our favorite comic-book hero — and see it butchered and spit out there 15 minutes into the film. Or [see] our favorite villains thrown all into one movie, as if that’s even possible, and then made into a fight scene that doesn’t even do the villain any justice — or the hero, for that matter. It’s not done in the book like that! I wish they would learn lessons from people like Robert Rodriguez, who actually had the person who created the book [Frank Miller] sit there with him on the set [of Sin City] and tell him, frame by frame, ”This is what this looks like.” He copied the comic book damn near perfectly, and the movie was a great success. 300 was the same thing. I can’t see how they don’t see it. I want to see what happens to this Wolverine movie [X-Men Origins: Wolverine]. I’m hoping not to be disappointed. I won’t talk about Fantastic Four because there’s not a person on this planet over the age of 15 that liked those two movies. I’m serious. Let me stop, that’s mean. But you can’t do that to the most powerful team on the planet! The Fantastic Four, and then you turn it into a comedy, damn near?! No! Stan Lee, stand up! But I’ll tell you this much — whenever they come out with a comic-book movie, I’ll still go see it, whether to complain about it or to praise it.

Do you have any other upcoming acting projects you’d like to talk about?
Not right now. I’m really focusing on the music side right now. Me and Redman are back in the studio working on our next album [after 1999’s Blackout!], so that’s gonna be real hot. Can’t wait for that.

Yeah, I was going to ask you about that — I read an interview where Redman said you were doing Blackout 2, right? How’s that going?
Oh yeah, we on the Blackout 2, yup. So far, so good, man. [For production] we’re going to get Erick Sermon up in there, my man Kwamé of course, DJ Scratch. Right now we’re just piecing together more beats, and what direction we’re gonna go. ‘Cause this just can’t be, like, ”You rhyme, I rhyme.” Nah. We want it to actually feel like so much of a collaboration that it’s in unison, it clicks together. Like, you can’t have your cereal without your milk. That’s the best analogy I can come up with right now.
