More quotes by Brian K. Vaughan
My parents grew up during the space race, and I think they imagined the future would be us living on moon bases and everyone has rocket shoes.
Brian K. Vaughan
Each collected edition of Paper Girls that we put out will largely be set in an entirely different era.
Brian K. Vaughan
I know I'm a grumpy old man, but I'm always more delighted by readers talking about the actual comics than people talking about how eager they are to have their favorite comics be elevated into another medium. Adaptations are great, but for me, comics have always been the destination, not a stepping-stone to get somewhere else.
Brian K. Vaughan
All writing is the same: It's just making up lies until it starts to sound like the truth. That's what I do.
Brian K. Vaughan
There's just something about that late '80s that suddenly feels like it has something to teach us.
Brian K. Vaughan
Happy endings are bullshit. There are only happy pauses.

There's a lot of dark stuff from the '80s that we don't think about.
Brian K. Vaughan
Your own creations are your own children you gave life to them, so you'll always have, if not more passion to them, more connections to them.
Brian K. Vaughan
Violence is stupid. Even as a last resort, it only ever begets more of the same.
Brian K. Vaughan
I don't start a story until I know where it's going to end.
Brian K. Vaughan
I'm really happiest living life 22 pages at a time and putting things in little boxes on pages.
Brian K. Vaughan
Not a word of my writing has ever been changed by another person's hands, and I don't think many screenwriters can say that.
Brian K. Vaughan
I've never had any interest in retelling stories from my youth.
Brian K. Vaughan
I think some people are just very passionate that things remain the way they were when they were kids.
Brian K. Vaughan
In film, you have the luxury of accomplishing what you need in 24 frames every second. Comics, you only have five or six panels a page to do that.
Brian K. Vaughan
Fans of my books have just been supremely nice.
Brian K. Vaughan
We describe [Paper Girls] as Stand By Me meets Terminator.It's a story about nostalgia and childhood, but with an action-packed, sci-fi bent.
