I've always had a soft spot for comic books. I learned to read from them. The words in them were so interesting.
I'm a huge fan of anything Ed Brubaker does. A lot of his 'Daredevil' stuff. A lot of his creator-owned stuff, too. His 'Criminal stuff,' I'm really into.
Comics are so one-dimensional, especially 'Archie.'
I was a Marvel guy. I started reading comics when I was a kid.
I wasn't really a deep-rooted comic-book dude.
Being able to work in comics at all - I know I came into it from a different medium, but I'd like to stay here. It's not like a weird touristy thing for me.
I feel sorry for people who only know comic books through movies. I really do.
I came to comic books when I was about 15.
To paint comic books as childish and illiterate is lazy. A lot of comic books are very literate - unlike most films.
If you do approach a comics publisher, make sure it's one that publishes the kind of book you want to make. Don't take your literary fiction to Marvel or DC; don't pitch your Spider-Man epic to Image.
I'd been familiar with comics, and I'd collected 'em when I was a kid, but after I got into junior high school, there wasn't much I was interested in.
The comic book fans, especially 'X-Men' fans, are so serious about their comic book.
I was into Alan Moore and Frank Miller. I was a teenager when all those books where coming out for the first time - 'Watchmen,' 'V for Vendetta.' It was a great time to get into comics.
One of the things that appealed to me most about comics was that you can pick the ones you like and build your own personal pantheon.
I love writing comics too much.
In the early '90s, I was finishing up my adolescence. I visited my local comic-book store on a weekly basis, and one week I found a book on the stands called 'Xombi,' published by Milestone Media.
I've gotten more and more cut off from the regular comic-book world, from straight comics and stuff like that. Once in a while, I'll take a look at something.
I was into Spider Man when I was a kid and that was the only comic I've ever read.
I started reading DC stuff much later in my life. You realize that there's a huge difference between the Marvel universe and the DC universe and the characters that own it.
I had never been a comic book person before, really, because I had no access to them. Once I had access, I thought that these are just another avenue for telling stories and delving into the imagination.
At the age that I was when I stopped reading comics, and with a set of talents that would seem to mark a future comic-book auteur, my son has had only a passing enthusiasm for the medium.
To see where I've stolen all my ideas from, look no further than the comics at your local comic shop!
I'm pretty illiterate when it comes to comics history.
The comic book world is a tough business.
Well, I've been a big fan of comic books since I was a little kid. In fact, I used to write and draw my own comic books when I was on the old Lost in Space series.
