The real fun of living wisely is that you get to be smug about it.

Getting an inch of snow is like winning 10 cents in the lottery.

You can make your superhero a psychopath, you can draw gut-splattering violence, and you can call it a "graphic novel," but comic books are still incredibly stupid.

I very early caught on that the editor of Cincinnati Post had something specific in mind that he was looking for, and I tried to accommodate him in order to get published. I would turn out rough idea after rough idea, and he would veto eighty percent of them. I pretty much prostituted myself for six months but I couldn't please him, so he sent me packing.

Boy, there's nothing worse than an inscrutable omen.

Having an enviable career is one thing. Being a happy person is another

If you do the job badly enough, sometimes you don't get asked to do it again.
