If you look in the mirror and don't like what you see, you can find out first hand what it's like to be me.

Since I started as a comic person then became a musician to me it was interesting because I have this really great, interesting fanbase that's really smart and energetic and uh how could I steer them towards a medium that shaped who I was? You know, steer them toward comics. That was really the goal, to bring a lot of readers cuz they were reading a lot of comics but most of them hadn't been reading American comics, they'd be reading manga sitting on the floor of a Barnes and Noble.

It is often my nature to be abstract, hidden in plain sight, or nowhere at all.

Never forget how beautiful you are.

I'm just a man, not a hero. just a boy, who wants to sing this song.

I feel like my mission is to be honest with myself. My mission is to share my truth - share, not give. I think that's what an artist is supposed to do: I think they share.

Every big adventure should feel like your last. Every attempt should feel like a final charge up the hill. Tomorrow doesn't exist.
