Comics are essentially films with fewer frames per second.
Brian K. Vaughan
Image
Comics are not a genre, but a developing language.
Chris Ware

Comics, which are really best described as an arrangement of images in a sequence that tell a story - an idea - is a very old form of graphic communication. It began with the hieroglyphics in Egypt, it first appeared in a recognizable form in the Medieval times as copper plates produced by the Catholic church to tell morality stories.
Will Eisner
Image
Comics speak, without qualm or sophistication, to the innermost ears of the wishful self. The response is like that of a thirsty traveler who suddenly finds water in the desert - he drinks to satiation.
William Moulton Marston
Image
Comics know that they do best. They might not be best to rewrite to another person's comedy, but they know what is best for them. Luckily, I come from both a writing background - with 'Workaholics' - and I also act in what I've written.
Adam DeVine

Comics, a lot of them, are really depressed people, and I happen to be somebody that does have a lot of confidence. That's the odd thing about my stand-up. I am very confident. I always was.
Andrew Dice Clay
Image
Comics seem to be cooking these days. It's like being a rock star.
Art Spiegelman
Image
Comics are stories they're like novels or anything else. So the first thing you have to do is become a good storyteller.
Stan Lee
Image
Comics taught me how to write, and also patience and confidence.
Vera Brosgol

Comics can definitely be subversive on the whole, but it's a stylistic thing.
Ted Alexandro
Image
Comics are an international language, they can cross boundaries and generations. Comics are a bridge between all cultures.
Osamu Tezuka

ComicsAlliance asked if I wanted to do some holiday comics using a new layout and I said ‘HELLO, NEVER IN MY NEAR-DECADE OF MAKING COMICS HAVE I EVER DONE THIS, so actually I’m really glad you asked!’
Ryan North

Comics write to their point of view. If you're an exceedingly irreverent comedian, you've got to see where that point of view fits or produces the most funny.
Jim Gaffigan
Image
Comics have a caste system - an editor has to act in a certain way, an artist has to be humble.
Jack Kirby
Image
Comics are carried by characters. If a character is well-created, the comic becomes a hit.
Kazuo Koike

Comics can really help kids become confident readers. They can teach kids the fundamentals - inference, tracking from left to right, learning how dialogue works. I want everyone to know what useful tools comics can be in helping and encouraging our kids to read.
Jennifer L. Holm

Comics are just another medium to express yourself. It's not cinema it's not literature it's just something else. It has a specific requirement, which is that images are used to tell the story. There are lots of crappy movies, with guns and action and Arnold Schwarzenegger or whatever.
Marjane Satrapi
Image
Comics have the page as their real estate so you've only got that space to tell the story on. But the other thing only comics do is to have the words and pictures being simultaneous. Your brain is flicking between them and you can put in some excellent narrative devices you can off-set things and juxtapose things between word and image.
Leah Moore
Image
Comics are expensive. Don’t make me resent the money I spend buying yours. Every single moment in your script must either move the story along or demonstrate something important about the characters — preferably both — and every panel that does neither is a sloppy waste of space.
Mark Waid
Image
Comics seemed to have a handle on things. They could sort of disarm and get control over reality. I found it very comforting to laugh.
Marc Maron
Image
Comics seldom move me the way I would be moved by a novel or movie. I say this as someone who would rather read comics than watch movies, listen to music, anything. But it's not an operatic medium. I hear other people talk about being moved to tears by comics. I can't imagine that.
Daniel Clowes
Image
Comics are a gateway into literature.
Francoise Mouly
Image
Comics don't like to see other comics do well.
Carrot Top
Image
Comics is different than writing because when you draw something you are trying to visualize it and you are trying to put yourself in that space. And when you're drawing something, all sorts of associations come up in my mind that I never would have thought of otherwise.
