...while-doing Spider-Man, The Fantastic Four-in the midst of doing all these other things. What's the appeal?It's not something that pays a whole lot of money, but I don't do it for that. I do it for the love of the form. I grew up on comics and cartoons. So, as an adult, I like comics and cartoons. My house looks like it was decorated by a 14-year old with a platinum American Express card. You should do what you enjoy doing, what brings you passion. As kids, we spontaneously sing and dance...

Kidnapped from the Liberian jungle, Cheeta grew up fast in the libidinous jungle of Hollywood, hanging out with the alpha males - Kirk and Clark and Doug Jr. - and jostling for the attention of the dominant females - Kate and Marlene and Bette. He didn't stint with the booze and the Lucky Strikes, lost his virginity to a bonobo (a cruel joke played by Charlie Chaplin) and snorted "star-powder" (a homeopathic remedy, they told him). And despite his star billing, Cheeta had to put up with some pretty cutting social prejudice. At one typically drunken lunch party, Cheeta recalls, "Sylvia...

...blown in some ways—hit by widespread losses across the world in investment values,” Faust said, while her colleagues at the head table, many of whom appeared amused at other points in the meeting, sat grim-faced.

Faust said that the primary concerns about the situation were that...

...Though we were enjoying our walk immensely, we began to wonder when we would happen upon the buffalo that had so enticed us initially. As the trees grew denser, our buffalo dreams started to fade. Just when we had given up all hope of viewing the fabled bison, we found them. But they were not, as I had inexplicably imagined, majestic and docile creatures roaming free on a wide-open plain, allowing themselves to be petted or even ridden by a worthy human such as myself. Instead there were maybe four buffalo lounging in a chain-link enclosure...

...first formal interview with Barack Obama - and he appeared on this magazine's cover for the first time. It wasn't an easy interview. His book The Audacity of Hope had just been published, but his policy proposals didn't seem very audacious. He actually grew a bit testy when I pushed him on the need for universal health insurance and a more aggressive global-warming policy - neither of which he supported. He has stayed with his less-than-universal health-care plan, and I still find it less than convincing. And his cap-and-trade program to control carbon...
