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.

All writing is the same: It's just making up lies until it starts to sound like the truth. That's what I do.

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.

Gert: Wake me when the fight scene's over. Kitty Pryde: Oy, tell me about it. Hey, I'm Kitty. You the token pacifist of your group? Gert: Not exactly. Pacifists are like vegans, I'm more of a vegetarian. I enjoy fish and occasional maulings.

I am a big theater fan. It's mostly just being pretentious, I think, and trying to look smart.

Each collected edition of Paper Girls that we put out will largely be set in an entirely different era.

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.

There's a lot of fiction from that period that we're nostalgic for.

There are only three forms of high art: the symphony, the illustrated children's book and the board game.

I'm really happiest living life 22 pages at a time and putting things in little boxes on pages.

Immigration confuses and terrifies me, so why not try to write a comic and make some sense of it?

I have no imagination I just steal from life and change the color. Then it's a comic book.
