“Writer's block? I've heard of this. This is when a writer cannot write, yes? Then that person isn't a writer anymore. I'm sorry, but the job is getting up in the fucking morning and writing for a living.”
― Warren Ellis

“I've died before. It was boring, so I stood up.”
― Warren Ellis, Moon Knight, Vol. 1: From the Dead

“Cheap! But not as cheap as your girlfriend.”
― Warren Ellis

“Who the hell is Warren Ellis again?â€�
Hardison gaped at the man. “Only one of the greatest comics writers in the past twenty years. Might as well ask who Alan Moore is, or Frank Miller, or Mark Waid, or Brian Michael Bendis, or Marv Wolfman, or Geoff Johns.�

Eliot gave Hardison a blank look as they wove their way through the hall. Parker took the lead, toting a printed sign with her. Eliot and Hardison trailed in her wake. They made a point of striding right past Patronus’s booth. They didn’t turn to see if he noticed them.

“No one?� Hardison said. “Nothing? Not even Kurt Busiek? Neil Gaiman?�

“I have a life. I do things, active things. I date women.�
“Stan Lee?�

Eliot gave Hardison that one with a wag of his head. “Who hasn’t heard of Stan Lee?�

“All right,â€� Hardison said with satisfaction. “You had me worried there, man.”

“I’ve enjoyed the comicbook writings of Warren Ellis since a friend introduced me to Transmetropolitan via the “holiday specialâ€� in collected volume three. Ah yes, Scott and Edé’s housewarming, I had passed out in a chair, our friend Aeric on the couch, and I woke up to the sound of Edé’s girlfriend coming downstairs and asking Aeric, “what’cha got there?â€� and Aeric replied, “I’m not sure, but it’s psychotic. Ru, are you up yet? You have to see this when I’m done.â€� Everyone else should be so lucky to have such an introduction to Ellis.”

“How did you get the badges?â€� Parker asked. “You didn’t steal a badge from a pro, did you?â€�

“Of course not,� Hardison said. “Geek solidarity to the end.�
“Then whose name is this on my badge? Who’s Diana Prince?�
Hardison laughed. “That’s Wonder Woman’s secret identity.�
Parker giggled at that. “And who are you? Carl Lucas?�
“That’s Luke Cage’s original name.�
“Who?� Eliot didn’t bother to conceal his irritation.

“Luke Cage? You know, Power Man? Of Power Man and Iron Fist?� Hardison waited for a response that never came. “Sweet Christmas, what’s wrong with you people?�

“We have lives. And just who am I supposed to be, huh? Batman’s secret sidekick?�

“You’d like that, wouldn’t you?� Sophie said. Nate gave her a nudge with his elbow, and she fixed him with a mischievous smile.

“Naw, man,� said Hardison. “I wouldn’t do that to you. I know how you feel about ‘fictional� people.�

“So who the hell is Warren Ellis?�
“He’s a comic-book writer. Good one.�
Eliot groaned. “For God’s sake, do I look like a comic-book writer?�

“Hey, don’t knock Warren Ellis. He wrote all sorts of great stuff. Global Frequency, The Authority, Transmetropolitan. Good stuff.”
