Quote

I like Silver Surfer because he's the most philosophical, always philosophizing about the human race and the human condition and why people are the way they are, why they don't appreciate this wonderful planet they live on... he has a nice moral tone.

If you enjoy what you do, if you are interested in what you do, I really think that's the best situation.

I'm lucky. I don't have to produce the whole movie. What I've been doing is just coming up with ideas for movies. I write a concept, a treatment, an outline, and if I sell that to a studio, then someone else does the actual production and I go on to another project, although I keep the title executive producer.

I love all the voiceovers I do. I can't remember them all, but I seem to do them all of the time. And there's nothing easier because you just stand and read the script, and you don't have to act the way actors do. You don't have to be made up and put costumes on.

If you're writing about a character, if he's a powerful character, unless you give him vulnerability I don't think he'll be as interesting to the reader.

I like Spider-Man because he's become the most famous. He's the one who's most like me - nothing ever turns out 100 percent OK he's got a lot of problems, and he does things wrong, and I can relate to that.

I always figure I'm not unique, and something that would please me hopefully would please a lot of other people that have the same tastes that I do.

I hated teenagers in comics because they were always sidekicks. And I always felt if I were a superhero, there's no way I'd pal around with some teenager, you know.

I don't sound disloyal, but I've never had a pair of Marvel pyjamas or underwear. I do have a lot of Marvel figurines at home in a cabinet. Every time they make a new Marvel figure I put it in my cabinet.

I think if I were a superhero saving the world, I'd expect at least not to have to pay income taxes. I mean there should be something in it for a hero who risks his life to save mankind every day.

To tell you the truth, I never thought of myself as much of a success.

In fact, I was too dumb to save any of the old comic books or the old artwork. I used to give them away.

The public always loves anything that's different, as long as it's well-made, if it's well-done. You never know what to expect when you go to one of these so-called superhero movies.

There's just something that feels nice about holding a comic book!

Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor.

It's amazing what these superhero movies have become.

I wanted them to be diverse. The whole underlying principle of the X-Men was to try to be an anti-bigotry story to show there's good in every person.
