I am also a writer. That is a fact not known by the public in general.

I was involved with the Batman. There are two sides to every story. Now you've heard my side.

This sounds like my autobiography, but I thought this would be a good time to sound off about myself, as I think that I have been silent too long about my views and opinions.

The trouble with being a ghostwriter or artist is that you must remain rather anonymously without credit. If one wants the credit, one has to cease being a ghost and become a leader or innovator.

What I read is so distorted that I cannot believe that the person they are talking about is myself.

Much is written about the Batman because he is publicly exposed in print. Very little is known personally about his creator, because I haven't given out that many interviews.

I created Batman about 10 years before Ian Fleming created James Bond.
