I really can't pinpoint the one moment when I said I want to be a comic.

It's not until you develop your own voice, your own persona onstage that you become your own comic, who you really are.

My comics have changed so much over the years, in the writing, in art style, sometimes incrementally, sometimes quite suddenly. So I've cultivated an audience who will go along with me because they trust me.

I think a lot of the things in my life that I become most passionate about, and most excited about, are all from comics.

I'm sure that no matter what I'm involved in, I'll always be doing comics, at least in some minor capacity.

I think to be a successful comic, you have to be exceptionally smart and exceptionally perceptive.

I'm a comic nerd. I'm a former serious collector for much of my childhood and early teen years I wanted to draw underground comics.

I've tried to write from my own understanding of identity in all my comics, whether it's about superheroes or historical conflicts or monkey gods.
