I have a very low tolerance for animation. I'm used to the perfect integrity you get from drawing your own comics. There's something about that that animation always loses.

I think I've had the fantasy of a ray-gun that could erase the world from the time I was a very little kid.

I had no television when I was little, just a stack of old, beat-up comics from the 1950s and 1960s.

I think I'm gonna attach myself to the sinking ship that is book publishing.

For me, the whole process involves envisioning this Ghost World comic book in my head as I'm working.

I've had a real lucky time working in Hollywood. I've talked to other screenwriters, and they're all kind of beaten down and their spirits are crushed, because they work on these screenplays and these projects, and then directors either take them and change everything, rewrite them and make them worse, or they film them and they're nothing like how they imagined it to be.
