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
Image
Maybe in this Star Wars world maybe subconsciously I was preparing myself. But I've just found all of my ideas I've been coming up with are big sci-fi things, and I wanted to do a big epic, a big space opera, and this is it. This is mine.

I spent as much time writing proposals in '98 and '99 as I did writing scripts.

The breadth of the potential readership is also a factor.

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.
Mark Millar

Many of our leadership practices have gone from being tried and true to being tired and tarnished.

All my kids love superheroes, but my middle daughter in particular is obsessed with Wonder Woman and Batgirl.

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.

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.

I'm honestly as happy writing Superman Adventures as I am writing Wanted.
Mark Millar

Ever since 1980, sci-fi has generally been more Bladerunner than Star Wars. People talk about Star Wars being the most influential movie of all time and creating the blockbuster along with Jaws and that sort of thing, but really there's not been a space opera that anyone can go and see.

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

You can lead with or without a title. If you wait until you get a title, you may wait forever.
Mark Millar
Image
What I do with everything is take things out of real life. You encounter all sorts of stories. It's a lot of your friends and family, sometimes there's quite sad episodes in their life and everything. So just little things I've picked up along the years always find a way into all of my stories.

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

I'm very lucky that I have this other career that runs alongside my comic career, which is a film career, and I've been given this really lovely setup where they seem to make the movies very quickly as well.
Mark Millar
Image
I didn't break into comics to write fairytales or crime comics.

Image
The books are all very, very different so the publishers really had to be different too.

Image
If you feel the need to make everyone happy, you should be a wedding planner not a leader.

I'm a huge fan of the Rod Serling sci-fi, where they could take the most odd and enormous ideas but ground them in something very human.
