More quotes by Brian K. Vaughan
I've never had any interest in retelling stories from my youth.
Brian K. Vaughan
Immigration confuses and terrifies me, so why not try to write a comic and make some sense of it?
Brian K. Vaughan
Happy endings are bullshit. There are only happy pauses.
Brian K. Vaughan
I've been fortunate enough to travel to comic conventions in Portugal, France, Canada, and it's an honor to get to meet people from all over the world.
Brian K. Vaughan
There are a lot of differing opinions on that. Some people think you should change out more, but I think changing just 20 percent is less stressful on the aquarium and fish. Once you get used to the regimen, it's pretty easy.
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
You'd never be able to convince someone to give you money to do a bilingual story where you're not translating half of it - you'd drive people crazy. But in comics, you can do whatever your heart desires.
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
I love that the book [Paper Girls ] gets to kind of evolve and change in each era. Our third storyline is our best so far.
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
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
I start with something that makes me angry or confused, and then I write about it. It's a form of self-help.
Brian K. Vaughan
Fantasy/science-fiction stories have been around almost as long as each genre, but every hybrid now lives in the shadow of 'Star Wars.'
Brian K. Vaughan
I've written about teenage heroes before, on Marvel's Runaways, and I remember at the time when I pitched it, it was a team that had more female members than males. Even that caused of much discussion about, Will there be a market for this, and should there at least be equal number of male and females?
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.
Brian K. Vaughan
Violence is stupid. Even as a last resort, it only ever begets more of the same.
Brian K. Vaughan
It was interesting looking back at the '80s and trying to find newspaper headlines from the time - the cliché of history repeating itself.
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
There's a lot of dark stuff from the '80s that we don't think about.
Brian K. Vaughan
Comics brought me to the dance. It'll always be my first loyalty.
