who is your favourite character in the magnus archives universe (multiverse?)

can be in terms of favourite to write and create or just general enjoyment

S1 Alice is the most fun to write in Protocol.

MAG Distortion was most fun to write in Archives.

Gertrude is probably the most interesting character.

But an actual favourite in Magnusverse? Not really.

Have you ever read homestuck and if you have, what aspects would the Fears be?

I have not, sorry.

So based on zero information I would guess… green?

Who would win in a fight, Sasha Rackett or Melanie King?

Sasha Racket by a massive margin.

Now, if you asked me who would be the fastest at cutting out Melanie’s eyes?

That would be a close one.

Hey!

How’d you decide on the name The Magnus Archives?

If I remember correctly, Jonny said:

“I want to make a show called The Magnus Archives”

And I said:

“Okay.”

That’s the whole story from my perspective.

hello and good timezone to you sir! TMA related question for you: if the Eye can see through any depiction of eyes (drawings, paintings, actual eyes, etc) then can it see through the written word "eye"?

Don’t think so.

If you were to die by the hands of an Avatar, wich one would it be ? Like, the lest painful, or the most legendary/funny way ???

Probably one of the Corruption ones.

I’d try to kick it and like my leg would fall off or something.

Alex I have a very important question.... Would Michael Shelley have a shellfish allergy

It is not beyond the realm of possibility but perhaps it is beyond the realm of good sense.

If you could destroy 1 Leitner with your own hands/tools/furniture/etc, which Leitner would you choose to destroy and how would you do it?

The man himself with a damning treatise criticising his book-magpie habits.

Do you marmite?

I do not.

Hello sir, bossman sir.

Did you know sir, that you are in fact quite adorable?

(As a person, not in any weird way, sir.)

Have a good day now sir.

Many elderly women have told me I am a lovely young man so there’s that I guess? I’d rather people look at me and see Captain America with comedy chops but apparently I’m too “jolly” for that so I’ll take what I can get.

Is there a snowballs chance in hell we will ever get anymore RQG related content?

I get asked this a lot and I will answer truthfully.

I have considered it. How it would work, what it would be about. The truth is though I have yet to have the eureka moment I did with Magnus for further content and it may not even be logistically possible. Certainly it would be very different.

Also time spent on that would be time taken away from working on new stuff like the dark fantasy novels I have been developing and other stuff I can’t talk about.

TLDR: Possible but no time soon and it would probably be unrecognisable.

What character would Gertrude be most likely to call “riff-raff”?

I don’t know why but my gut is telling me Needles from Protocol at the moment
