There is a difference between creating something and just capturing something.

The only real reason that I'd have for working for Hollywood is the fantastic amounts of money involved, and that isn't enough of an incentive to really give up the degree of control that I have over my work at the moment with comics.

We have to find a way to make the aspects of capitalism that serve wealthier people serve poorer people as well.
