I think there is something a little too self conscious about enjoying being an outsider.

Because of the audience I get and the fact that these people aren't traditional comics buyers I don't think the comic industry looks at that and thinks that is a very respectable thing. I'm very used to it. I'm not the guy who wins awards and gets mentioned in magazines.

I don't go to things because I want to see violence, I go to things because I want to see them handled well.

Doing something purely for one's own enjoyment is fine, but, I must admit, finding that others enjoy it as well has a certain power over the corners of my mouth.

As I got farther and farther along in the series I did less and less preparation. I didn't use outlines or sketches. I just had a vague idea of what I wanted to tell and then the dialogue just came to me as I was inking the page.

This is heaven. You can stop praying now.

I like not being dead. Anything beyond that is just icing on the cake.My undead cake of livingness.
