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
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
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.

Print and digital comics will always coexist.

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.

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.

Comics are essentially films with fewer frames per second.
