I was always interested in myths growing up. So, first I got into some Roman myths, then I was interested in Norse, then Celtic, then I started spreading to all the other mythologies.

I write dozens and dozens of pages more than I need, and then edit them down to size. It's more like sculpture than construction.

Sometimes it’s only madness that makes us what we are.

Laugh and the world laughs with you!

The world gets more like Disneyland every day, and it's the same the other way round. I can't explain what I know. Try explaining RED to a DOG and see how fast he gets bored.

And that's why people read comics, to get away from the way life works, which is quite cruel and unheroic and ends in death.

I think that superhero comics in particular are really useful for talking about big emotions and feelings, and personifying and concretizing symbols.
