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

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
There's a lot of fiction from that period that we're nostalgic for.
Brian K. Vaughan
Fans of my books have just been supremely nice.
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 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
Violence is stupid. Even as a last resort, it only ever begets more of the same.
Brian K. Vaughan
Comics are essentially films with fewer frames per second.
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
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
Brubaker and Phillipss books have always been about eight years ahead of their time.
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
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
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
The biggest inspiration for everything I do is, of course, my wife, playwright Ruth McKee.
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
When a man carries an instrument of violence, he'll always find the justification to use it.
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
We're always looking roughly 30 years behind us. In the '80s they were obsessed with the '50s and so on.
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'm just grateful to finally be telling a story with all females at the lead.
