More quotes by Mark Millar
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.
Mark Millar
The highest form of leadership is one in which a leader raises up other leaders - not as an accident, but as a result of conscious effort.
Mark Millar
You can lead with or without a title. If you wait until you get a title, you may wait forever.
Mark Millar
Decision-making is a skill. Wisdom is a leadership trait.
Mark Millar
Their argument, and I think it's a correct one, is that they'll make more money from the trades and the hardcovers if nobody messes with the creative team.
Mark Millar
Many of our leadership practices have gone from being tried and true to being tired and tarnished.
Mark Millar
Cookbooks are almost a substitution for a lost sense of culture. People want some other life than the one they're living, so they buy a cookbook with pictures and imagine themselves as part of that life.
Mark Millar
Artists, no matter how good their intentions, are always slower than they think.
Mark Millar
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.

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

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.
Mark Millar
The breadth of the potential readership is also a factor.
Mark Millar
If you feel the need to make everyone happy, you should be a wedding planner not a leader.
Mark Millar
I didn't break into comics to write fairytales or crime comics.
Mark Millar
He [Stuart Immonen] and I have known each other over email for 18, 19 years or something, so to finally work with him is like kissing the girl that you always wanted to kiss.
Mark Millar
I'm just running through this list of potential nannies and wondered if we should go for a superhero this time. Do you think Wolverine would be interested? He seems to be on every other team right now.
Mark Millar
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.
