Quote

The Dark Knight series is all from Batman's point of view. But if you look at Dark Knight 2, you'll see a Superman who's much calmer than the one in the first Dark Knight. Batman and Superman are dead opposites. I love Superman. Do I love Batman more? They're not people. They're only lines on paper.

Hollywood is a town it's not a medium. And cinema is a medium you can practice anywhere.

Deadly little Miho. She won't let you feel a thing unless she wants you to. She twists the blade. He feels it.

I grew up on the crime stuff. Spillane, Chandler, Jim Thompson, and noir movies like Fuller, Orson Welles, Fritz Lang. When I first showed up in New York to write comics back in the late 1970s, I came with a bunch of crime stories but everybody just wanted men in tights.

I can tell you squat about Islam. I don’t know anything about it. But I know a goddamn lot about al Qaeda and I want them all to burn in hell.
Frank Miller

I'm not going to complain about the fact that people are paying attention to my work. I suppose that wouldn't be fair.
Frank Miller
Image
I don't do a comic book thinking there is a movie. I just want it to be as good a comic book as it can be.

I think most things I read on the Internet and in newspapers are propaganda. Everyone from the 'New York Times' to Rupert Murdoch has a point of view and is putting forth their own propaganda. They're stuck with the facts as they are, but the way they interpret and frame them is wildly different.

I prefer to write and draw in the privacy of my home and with total freedom and then take it to the lion's den.

I realized that I was about to turn 30, and Batman was permanently 29. And I was going to be damned if I was older than Batman.

Gotham City. Clean shafts of concrete and snowy rooftops. The work of men who died generations ago. From here, it looks like an achievement. From here, you can't see the enemy.

Comic-book pages are vertical, and movie screens are relentlessly horizontal. But it's all the same form. We use different tools, but we get the job done. I'm completely in love with CGI. It's great for conveying a cartoonist's sense of reality.
