While on the set of a video shoot in Van Nuys, California, that Albert
met a then aspiring magazine publisher Gareb S. Shamus. The two spoke
for their affinity of comic books and from there sprung a working
relationship that would take Albert from San Diego to Chicago and
Philadelphia to cover conventions for the widely popular Wizard
Magazine. But it was during that video shoot where Albert met a then
rising star Todd McFarlane popular for his stint on Spider-Man that he
showed off a then new idea for a comic hero, Spawn and which later
became the birth of Image Comics. From here on end Stan "The Man" Lee
lamented that Albert was his own personal Paparazzi!
