When people see me struggling on paper, I think it invites an almost collaborative relationship with the outside world, and that includes readers and other artists.

I think it's harder for each generation. Even I just feel completely separate from teenagers today who have access to the Internet. And I'm amazed that this interest in video games has never gone away. It just keeps growing.

I think a lot of the bells and whistles that become available to you would be impossible to resist for some people, so it's just never going to be a real stand-in version of your comic. People will have to take advantage of the ability to have sound, or zoom in and out, whatever it is.

The experience of reading a comic should not be the time it takes to turn each page.

It's important to make a distinction between becoming more precise and becoming better.

You start to get nervous when the value of a comic book or graphic novel is relative to the achievements of some other medium.

It's cold water in the face to realize you're not nearly as special and as unusual as you might have thought when you were an alienated teenager.
