The longer I've been writing scripts, the more I find that you have to give the artist more leeway or else you'll just be disappointed. You can't force them to draw every image that's in your head. Since I'm a horrific artist, I wouldn't want them to anyway. So I definitely give them a lot more leeway now than I did at the beginning.

Comics are essentially films with fewer frames per second.

A comic script is basically a love letter from you to your artist.

I like things that are weirdly imaginative and couldn't be real, but I also like stories that are recognizable and relatable.

I've never gotten anything but support and thanks from people for having diverse books.

I'm the one who started spreading that particular factoid, about Bendis, Azz and me all being bald Brian's from Cleveland, just to get my name mentioned in the same sentence as two much-better writers, and it's worked like a goddamn charm. Next up, I'm going to grow a big, disgusting beard, just so people will start talking about Alan Moore and me in the same breath.

My parents grew up during the space race, and I think they imagined the future would be us living on moon bases and everyone has rocket shoes.
