People love their comic books.

I think it would be harder for me not to write comedy because the comic view of things is the one that comes most naturally to me.

I just love comic books. I've always loved comic book art, and I just think it's amazing.

Comic books are a big passion of mine.

I'm not a really big comic book person. I know the typical ones - 'Spider-Man' and 'Wonder Woman' and 'Storm' and that stuff. But don't quiz me, because I'm not good at things like that.

I've always loved comic books, which is why I've done films like 'Hulk' and 'The Punishers.'

A lot of my comic influences are distinctly American: Woody Allen and Bob Hope, for example. They were always the underdogs who were using wit to sort of battle their way through. And it seems to me that a lot of contemporary U.S. comedies are shot through with losers. None of the characters in 'The Big Bang Theory,' for instance, are studs.

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