...these guys could really draw. There's more color. In Bert Grimm's time they had three colors - black, green and red - and they weren't too sure about the red, and they weren't too sure about the green. Then the next group up is my group, the late '80s and early '90s. No Tasmanian devils, no half-naked pirate chicks or Harley Davidson-inspired stuff. Everything we were doing was like fantasy art, and all of this art kind of reflects what the customer is looking for. That's the whole reason you draw flash, so you have...

...never took a strong position on the LTTE until he ran for President, and he has supported privatization as President despite his long history as a left-leaning trade unionist. Most surprisingly, he was once a passionate advocate for human rights, speaking out against the government in the late 1980s during a notorious time of disappearances and killings.
