More quotes by Brian K. Vaughan
We're always looking roughly 30 years behind us. In the '80s they were obsessed with the '50s and so on.
Brian K. Vaughan
I sort of jumped out of movies and into the lifeboat of comics. I loved it right away. It was the opposite of film school. Whatever was in my imagination could end up in the finished product. There were just no limitations.
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
Comics brought me to the dance. It'll always be my first loyalty.
Brian K. Vaughan
Brubaker and Phillipss books have always been about eight years ahead of their time.

Brian K. Vaughan
It's just people who grew up in that time are suddenly old enough to be creators themselves, but I think they have a little perspective. I'm 40 now, and I have children of my own. Before I forget my own childhood completely, I want to take some time to take a look at the '80s and think back.
Brian K. Vaughan
Once upon a time, each of us was somebody's kid. Everyone had a father, even if he never provided anything more than his seed. Everyone had a mother, even if she had to leave us on a stranger's doorstep. No matter how we're eventually raised, all of our stories begin the exact same way. They all end the same, too.
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
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
Violence is stupid. Even as a last resort, it only ever begets more of the same.
Brian K. Vaughan
They hurt you. You hurt 'em back. Or maybe it is the other way around. Whatever. Someday you might find a way to forgive each other. But it won't be like it used to 'cause that pain never really goes away.
Brian K. Vaughan
After ten years of toiling away in Hollywood, I realized that there's no better place for new ideas than comics.
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
The biggest inspiration for everything I do is, of course, my wife, playwright Ruth McKee.
Brian K. Vaughan
I am a big theater fan. It's mostly just being pretentious, I think, and trying to look smart.
