If you're using sex to sell sneakers, then you're not just selling sneakers, you're selling sex as well, and you're contributing to the sexual temperature of society.
Alan Moore

People shouldn't be afraid of their government. Governments should be afraid of their people.
Alan Moore

I try to do things in comics that cannot be repeated by television, by movies, by interactive entertainment.

I thought as much. Miss Murray, though I am a beast, do not think that I am stupid. I know that I am hideous and hateful. I am not loved, nor ever hope to be. Nor am I fool enough to think that what I feel for you is love. But in this world, alone, I do not hate you. And alone in this world, you do not hate me.

There has been a rather unpleasant sensibility apparent in Frank Miller's work for quite a long time.

Nothing's that simple, not even things that are simply awful.

There... Poor little things. You see them? Standing with their numbers on their blank, indifferent faces, Nuremberg in miniature, the ranks of painted wooden men... Poor dominoes. Your pretty empire took so long to build, now, with a snap of history's fingers down it goes.

They say we have we created the man to end all wars I say we have created a man to end all worlds.

My mother said I broke her heart...but it was my integrity that was important. Is that so selfish? It sells for so little, but it's all we have left in this place. It is the very last inch of us...but within that inch we are free.

Magic and art tend to share a lot of the same language. They both talk about evocation, invocation, and conjuring.

I really can't be bothered going to a barber. And shaving every morning, that's nightmarish. I spent my teenage years covered in tiny little bits of toilet paper.

You wear a mask for so long, you forget who you were beneath it.

On the one occasion where I did try writing a screenplay, I found the rewriting just unendurable.

Right from the outset, the prevailing mindset in British comics fandom was a radical and progressive one. We were all proto-hippies, and we all thought that comics would be greatly improved if everything was a bit psychedelic like Jim Steranko.

Is it meaningless to apologize? Never.

As I see it, part of the art of being a hero is knowing when you don't need to be one anymore.

Dan, I'm not a Republic serial villain. Do you seriously think I'd explain my master-stroke if there remained the slightest chance of you affecting its outcome? I did it thirty-five minutes ago.

I don't really have any great interest in writing for movies. Comics, to me, is a much more promising field. There's still a lot of ground to be broken in comics, whereas movies, to a degree... I don't know. They're a wonderful art form, but they're not my favorite art form. They might not even be in the top five of my favorite art forms.

Happiness is the most insidious prison of all.
