Never follow somebody else's path; it doesn't work the same way twice for anyone.

I don't need to write comics for a living. I have movies and TV for that. I write comics for one reason and one reason only: I love comics. I love the form, the structure, the storytelling process, I love everything about it.

I was very clear that I wanted to keep 'Thor' out of the rest of the Marvel universe for no less than the first six issues. And the success of the book, I think, speaks well to that decision.

I'm all for crossovers if they benefit the individual books.

I grew up on comics and cartoons. So, as an adult, I like comics and cartoons.

It's really important to me to keep growing as a writer, to look for new challenges and be harshly critical of my own work in order to learn and tell better stories.

I think that we are already making steps toward mapping out the brain so we can identify the chemical patterns that create and store memory.
