The thing I like most about books is that anybody can afford them. They have an innate valuelessness.

There's something very strange and wrong-seeming about drawing realistic eyeballs in comics, at least in the mode of comics where action is carried more by the movement of the characters rather than where narration links disparately framed selected images.

I have a preponderance to look smug in photos; something to do with the way my mouth turns up at the corners.

The real power of comics is writing as you draw.

I wouldn't classify television as "cool," because to me anything that involves the reader's consciousness to drive and carry a story is an "active" medium, and anything that sort of just pours into the eyeballs and ears is the opposite.

I still can't get over the idea that respectable adults now go to see superhero movies and that such films get reviewed in the 'New Yorker.' Clearly, I am seriously out of step with the times.

Drawing on a computer doesn't make any sense to me. It's not intuitive.
