Also, seeing a bunch of "favorites lists" type questions: Are there other creators working right now in comics or film you guys look to for inspiration? Anyone who's work was especially influential on THE NASTY?

From Adam: SO MANY. In general Artists: Matthew Allison, Charles Burn, Nicole Goux, DWJ, Sally Cantirino, WARRWICK JOHNSON CADWELL!!! For the Nasty I looked at Sally a lot, a little Charles Burns, and Junji Ito.

From John: This answer may seem a bit left-field, but a big inspiration for THE NASTY was Bill Forsyth, the filmmaker behind LOCAL HERO and GREGORY'S GIRL. As a Scot myself, I'd say Forsyth has made some of the best Scottish stories ever, and I wanted to capture some of his charm and wit and translate that across into the world of video nasties and slashers.
