After ten years of toiling away in Hollywood, I realized that there's no better place for new ideas than comics.
Brian K. Vaughan
Image
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.

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

I've always thought of fantasy as a genre of best-case scenarios, and horror as a genre of worst-case scenarios.

Comics brought me to the dance. It'll always be my first loyalty.

Violence is stupid. Even as a last resort, it only ever begets more of the same.

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.

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.

The appealing thing about comics: There literally is no budget in comics. You're only limited by your imagination.
Brian K. Vaughan
Image
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.

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

Image
When a man carries an instrument of violence, he'll always find the justification to use it.

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

Happy endings are bullshit. There are only happy pauses.

Brubaker and Phillipss books have always been about eight years ahead of their time.

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.
