Comics are so full of amazing work. And I can't look at a drawing of a woman without thinking of, for instance, Wallace Wood and his amazing way of capturing beauty.

The best comics enlist you to take accountability for who you are, whether you like it or not.

I like strong female characters. I try to write them as role models for young girls.

I'm drawn to female characters; not all of them are strong characters.

When I need guidance or just to kvetch or to bounce ideas off of people, I go to Gail Simone, who is very much kind of the den mother of all of us who are working comics.

My wife, Caroline Spector, and I pitched some comic ideas to various publishers back in the '80s, but nothing ever came of it.

I think as time goes by you'll get female comics who are weirder - you'll get a female Mighty Boosh.

I'm a comic book fan.

There were very few women comics when I started out doing stand-up. But I always saw that as a great advantage.
