You can lead with or without a title. If you wait until you get a title, you may wait forever.
Mark Millar
Image
It didn't take a trauma to make you wear a mask. It didn't take your parents getting shot...or cosmic rays or a power ring...Just the perfect combination of loneliness and despair.
Mark Millar
Image
The animated books pay the lowest rates at the Big Two and you can forget about royalties.
Mark Millar
Image
If you feel the need to make everyone happy, you should be a wedding planner not a leader.
Mark Millar
Image
I wanted to portray very, very dark subject matter and a deceptively complex story in the brightest colours and simplest lines possible to leave the readers reeling.
Mark Millar

Your capacity to grow determines your capacity to lead.
Mark Millar

The heart is a muscle, and you strengthen muscles by using them. The more I lead with my heart, the stronger it gets.

I love the fact that they [girls ]are into Superman and Green Lantern and Batman and everything, and they really do have all those toys as well, but I don't want all their role models to be men.

Leaders don't ever arrive. If we ever think we're done, we are done!

The ultimate [act] that would be the taboo, to show how bad some villain is, was to have somebody being raped, you know? I don't really think it matters. It's the same as, like, a decapitation. It's just a horrible act to show that somebody's a bad guy.

In the U.S., Superman or Batman or something, the law-enforcement people, are the most famous comic characters. Americans have a respect, I think, for badges and a respect for uniforms. I think that's, in some ways, quite a nice thing, but it can be dangerous, too, because it can obviously be abused.

She was like John Rambo meets Polly Pocket Dakota Fanning crossed with Death Wish 4.

I'm honestly as happy writing Superman Adventures as I am writing Wanted.
Mark Millar
Image
First, believe in your ability to create the future. That's what leaders do-that is our job. Understand reality but never be imprisoned by it. Reality is a moment in time. The future has not yet been written-it is written by leaders.

Marvel books also feed into the smaller publishers and the fact that this is happening in the same month we're launching Ultimate Fantastic Four is no coincidence.
Mark Millar
Image
Wanted has gone into second, third and fourth printings of the individual issues and the north American printings of Wanted #1 are now close to 100,000.

When you expect the best from people, you will often see more in them than they see in themselves.
Mark Millar
Image
Batman: a force of chaos in my world of perfect order. The dark side of the Soviet dream. Rumored to be a thousand murdered dissidents, they said he was a ghost. A walking dead man. A symbol of rebellion that would never fade as long as the system survived. Anarchy in black.

Others control our opportunities, we control our readiness.
