The American conscience died with the Kennedys.

I find that if somebody is writing and drawing a comic book, planning it to be a movie and a game at the same time tends to lead to a pretty lame job.

'Cartoonists' dirty secret is that we tend to come up with stories that involve things that are really fun to draw.

Superman punched out Hitler. So did Captain America. That's one of the things they're there for.

I guess in my own egotistical way I like to create my own library of Batman books that doesn't run contrary to a single thing that has been published before, but it also stands on its own.

I moved to New York and was told, "Go back home. We don't need you. Go pump gas. You're from Vermont. We've got no use for you. You're not drawing guys in tights." So, I learned how to draw guys in tights, and I put them in as many crime situations as I could.

I don't do a comic book thinking there is a movie. I just want it to be as good a comic book as it can be.
