There are still some people out there who believe comic books are nothing more than, well, comic books. But the true cognoscenti know graphic novels are - at their best - an amazing blend of art literature and the theater of the mind.

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

I'm more into graphic novels than comic books.

To my mind, the most successful and the best comic book illustrators are those who translate the real world into a consistent code. If you look at Jack Kirby or Steve Ditko, their drawings look nothing like the real world, but they are internally consistent. In terms of a comic book it can work just fine.

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

I'd have to say that the things that mean the most to me are the examples of original comic art that I'm able to look at every day, most of them either by notable friends and/or for projects that I've worked on.

There are great comic books, these great geniuses that manage to tell you a story in one frame, and that became the thing that opened my eyes.

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

I've been writing for a long time, and I've loved comic books for a long time - forever - but I had to learn how to write in a different way to write sequential art for a graphic novel. It's been an interesting transition.

I like good stories above all else... and kickin' art really goes the final stretch to ensure a comic is good.
