It's business, selling comics, you work out what sells and you don't want to muck about with it too much.

Comics is a great medium to get a lot of stories out.

Comic books and graphic novels are a great medium. It's incredibly underused.

By and large, I think that comics work seriously hard. Many have other jobs as well, plus you never really switch off, so you're always working.

I have a great affection for comics, and I think that people underrate comics as a genre.

My publisher's been shipping me to comic-cons, and it seems that my readership overlaps perfectly with the comic-con crowd.

Comics are printed on paper, which is expensive, making it tough to stay in business.

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.

The comic book world is a tough business.

Comics, at least in periodical form, exist almost entirely free of any pretense; the critical world of art hardly touches them, and they're 100% personal.
