I've always had a soft spot for comic books. I learned to read from them. The words in them were so interesting.

I must have been 3 years old or less, and I remember paging through these comics, trying to figure out the stories. I couldn't read the words, so I made up my own stories.

I remember my comic strips being called 'new wave.' It bugged me.

We thought everybody read comics. We didn't know we were weird. We didn't know people that collected comics were strange. It was as normal as listening to rock music on the radio.

I used to read comics when I was a kid.

I love the interplay between words and pictures. I love the fact that in comics, your pictures are acting like words, presenting themselves to be read.

Comics is a language. It's a language most people understand intuitively.

One of the things about comics is people can linger on images and words as long as they want.

Comic books were just the means for me to tell the story.
