Truth speaks best in the language of poetry and symbolism, I think.

I loved IRON MAN: Robert Downey Jr. has been and probably will be my favourite actor for a long time…but IRON MAN, THE INCREDIBLE HULK, SUPERMAN RETURNS and all the others feel a little like Saturday morning cartoons next to the carbon black glory that is 'The Dark Knight.' Trust me, *this* is the future of this sort of thing.

X-Men is not a story about superheroes, but a story about the ongoing revolutionary struggle between good/new and bad/old.

With Marvel and DC, you're working with their pre-established fictional universes and characters. At those places, you're working with characters who will outlive you and maybe your children and your childern's children. Batman will outlive me, Spider-Man will outlive me, the Avengers will outlive me, and so it goes.

Talking to oneself, I have often thought, is the best way to be sure of intelligent and witty conversation.

And I ask him why he cuts his arms with a razor. Just fo feel. Just to feel something.

Your character that you create in your writing not only represents who you are, but also represents a number of people who you've met along the way.

The only thing that made me, or any of us, special was that no one in the whole of history would ever see the universe exactly the same way any other of us saw it.

Reality and unreality have no clear distinction in our present circumstances.

The only time I ever met a character that I wrote was when I met Ian McKellan, when he was playing Magneto in the 'X-Men' movies.

I run blindly through the madhouse ... And I cannot even pray ... For I have no God.

Writers and artists build by hand little worlds that they hope might effect change in real minds, in the real world where stories are read. A story can make us cry and laugh, break our hearts, or make us angry enough to change the world.

One must commit acts of the highest treason only when dressed in the most resplendent finery.
