I do believe, especially with the character of Batman, that the tone and the mood of the book is 80% of the job right there. And the more control I had over the story, the more control I had over the tone and the mood.

Taking Batman globally, not everything is going to have the same flavor as Gotham City; some places are going to be a lot more bright and airy. I would say that his stories are more broad, I guess I would put it that way.

I'd really want to - just from my own experience as an artist working with a writer, I'd want to do everything I could to tailor it to the artist I was working with.

I've always been a Batman fan, and I've always wanted to draw and write the sort of stories that I've always loved about Batman.

I'm just finding that when I'm sitting down and drawing the pages, it always takes me in a different direction than what I had in mind in my head.

I think I'm enjoying writing for me.I know what's in my head, so there's a little less margin for error, but I think I really would like to write for an artist, and obviously it really depends on the artist, and the sort of story I would do.

The greatest thing a man can do for himself is to marry someone who is infinitely better than he is. And that's exactly what I did.
