I still found literary criticism to be a suspect activity

I started to get bored with that stuff about only drawing men and I've taken it out of the slideshow.

I try not to have anything too much going on between waking up and getting to work. I like to just be really fresh when I sit down. I always have my best ideas, like, within five minutes of starting. And then the rest of the day is just kind of putting in time.

I get to do for a living what I did as a child for fun, and that's pretty cool.

I don't know, maybe it's because I was raised Catholic. Confession has always held a great appeal for me.

It's imprecise and insufficient, defining the homosexual as a person whose gender expression is at odds with his or her sex.

Mostly it was Mad magazine. And I did read a lot of - I had a subscription when I was little, but I also had access to some old collections, the little paperbacks of the really good stuff.
