If the gag is complicated, you spend more time thinking about the way you’re drawing it.

I have always loved horror very much. I used to write stories for DC's House of Mystery. It was one of my first jobs writing for comics, and I loved it.

Many of the American cartoonists that want to have a job and go so much for the total right without thinking, sometimes they get a slap on the face when their politician lets them down. So it goes on and on. The thing is staying in the middle and not getting committed, trying to get the best of both and do that with a sense of humor.

I keep very weird hours. I never know when I'm going to get an idea.

The sad events that occur in my life are the sad events that happen to everybody, with losing friends and family, but that is a natural occurrence, as natural as being born.

At the end of the '60s, I was trying to enter the world of comics.

I'd love to do a whole series of stories and have them collected into books.
