In a new interview with Qobux, Bruce Dickinson was asked if he plans to release a new album at the end of the 12-episode comic book series which is accompanying his latest LP, “The Mandrake Project”, he responded with:
“Oh, you know what? That is something I don’t know. Obviously, it’s a possibility, but I’m not going to force myself to go, ‘Oh, I have to do this because it’s at the end of three years.’ If something happens naturally, then great. I’m not gonna sit on my butt and do nothing. But what I’ve learned from this process is when you do stuff, just do stuff that is really great quality. Rather than do ten things that are all average, do one thing, which is really good.”
It seems like the story has to evolve naturally and not force himself to work on it. The story behind ‘The Mandrake Project’ has been in development for a decade or so. The story is about his saga about the century-long battle for the human control of immortality.
