It's extremely seldom that anybody wants me to change what I've written about them. Generally I portray them in a good light, if they're friends

I try and write the way things happen. I don't try and fulfill people's wishes

Comics are words and pictures. You can do anything with words and pictures.

I just continue to be kind of disappointed that people don't realize that and try and diversify the kind of work they are doing in comics.

I felt more alone that week than any. Sometimes I'd feel a body lying next to me like an amputee feels a phantom limb. All I did was think about Jennie Gerhardt and Alice Quinn and all the decades of people I had known. The more I thought, the more I felt like crying. Life seemed so sweet and so sad, and so hard to let go of in the end. But hey, man, every day is a brand new deal, right? Just keep on working and something's bound to turn up.

Life is about women, gigs, an' bein' creative.
