Dude, I'm so glad you mentioned it, and yes, because of these guys. I actually said very early on, I said, "This is something that I've been trying to crack. I haven't been able to. It's been bothering me for 24 years, and I pitched it in different variants." We just couldn't get there, whether it was me and these guys wrote something that unlocked it for me, and there's so much in the writing that they did for me. I mean, to see Wolverine with Deadpool is a whole different tone, but I'm so grateful for that. I feel such a relief, and I'm so glad you asked me the question. So yes is the answer, and I can't wait for you guys to discover it.
