I wasn't a big comic book reader. I always had trouble knowing which box to read next. I was always reading from the wrong box. I was like, this is a comic book that doesn't make any sense! I think I was reading them all out of sequence.
I think we can all agree it would be pretty amazing to see Spider-Man and Venom face off in a film.
While we do have 50 years of terrific Avengers stories, many of which our writing staff has written, along the way, this has to live in its own world.
When 'Iron Man' came out, I said, 'Oh - they are trying to have some fun.' It was a relief because every superhero movie had become so damn serious. Some people love that, but for me, it's a weird thing to watch. A man with a cape can have fun, but I won't listen to a lecture from him.
The Dark Satirist, like the Dark Knight - that could be a good name for a superhero.
My character is Toni Topaz, and she's from the new-generation Archie Comics. I will be rocking the signature pink hair.
Deadpool does not exist in any way, shape, or form without me.
I don't want to see Superman replaced with Superboy.
'Shadow Hero' was my first superhero story. I don't know why it took so long.
'Midnight Nation' is really interesting.
It's always been a dream for me to play a comic book character.
Hey, guess who's gay? The Green Lantern from the comic books. Today Mitt Romney knocked him down and shaved his head.
I wish the 'Dark Phoenix' saga had been done more effectively than it was, but that was out of my hands.
I had worked on Thanos, created him back even before I started working at Marvel.
I feel like what we've done in 'Homecoming' is really scratching the surface with Spider-Man.
What came out of 'The LEGO Movie' was the idea of 'Batman's the Dark Knight', so why is he so moody? What's going on? Why is he so banged up? And wouldn't it be fun to get in there and explore that?
The Creeper in the 'Katana' series is the same Creeper that will be in 'Villains Month.'
If you go back and look at the first issue of 'Indestructible Hulk,' if you have a sharp eye, you'll catch something that I totally forgot to put in there. In my horror, I only realized after the fact that I took totally for granted that everyone in the world knows what triggers the transformation.
The resolution of the Phoenix Saga was one of the most frustrating experiences that I think any of us ever had, but I also think it was the right move. The decision, three years later, to undo the Phoenix Saga with the resurrection of Jean was less so, but that's in my opinion.
Over at Marvel, I have a five-part series coming out very soon. The books or chapters will appear weekly. It's called '5 Ronin' and features some iconic Marvel heroes as you've never seen them.
When I was writing 'Black Panther,' on one level, I was angry because DC would never let me write 'Batman,' so I was doing Marvel's 'Batman,' and Reverend Achebe became sort of the Joker to Panther's Batman.
With 'Mutant Ninja Turtles,' I wanted to play a character who lives more in the real world, although yes, I grant you, he immediately encounters, um, turtles, of the teenage mutant ninja variety.
I can like Michael Keaton's Batman, and I can like Christian Bale's Batman.
I have some shorter stories coming out in other books early next year. I might be pitching a re-vamp of Ghost Rider in the spring. We'll see.
The Joker is my favorite villain of all time.
