When a medium like games or comic books whips up such a rapture of enthusiasm, naturally we look for lessons we should be learning.
video games are the comic books of our time... It's a medium that gains no respect among the intelligentsia".
I grew up reading comic books. Super hero comic books, Archie comic books, horror comic books, you name it.
Bad criticism has followed things like comic books or TV, and they put down a medium. A medium cannot be inherently good or bad.
I'm not ashamed of comic books. You have some people that are like, 'We're trying to elevate comic books.' Comic books have always told great dramatic stories.
Ultimately, there's always been a link between comic books and video games, and comic books and movies, and then basically all three steadily becoming this sort of transmedia.
I came in with a very specific idea about what a Doctor Strange movie should be, which was rooted in the comics, and I thought it should be as weird and as visually ambitious compared to modern comic book movies as the comic was when it showed up in the '60s compared to other comic books at the time.
I've said this before, but I don't like putting captions in my comic books. I feel, for me, they become a crutch, a way to ignore the essential fact that our medium is a visual medium, and the greatest pleasures to be derived from comics are how stories can be told with pictures.
I want to show there's an edgier side of people who love comic books. And there are people who don't look like you and me who do read comic books and who love artists.
It meant something to see people who looked like me in comic books. It was this beautiful place that I felt pop culture should look like.
The comic-book industry today is not what it was back then, unfortunately. Kids are no longer interested in reading comic books; they've got television and the electronic games that they can bury themselves in like ostriches. They don't have to pay attention to what's going on in the world around them.
I was not a comic book reader, but my son is. My son wasn't really interested in reading books, which was hard for me because I love to read. It just didn't come naturally to my boy. So we kind of found comic books because they were fascinating to him. They were great stories.
In a sense, comic books are frozen movies. If you look at a comic book, you are generally seeing the storyboard for a film. The great advantage of comic books, over the years, has been that, if they are frozen movies, they are not limited by budget. They are only limited by imagination.
I grew up with comic books, and I'm from the Caribbean, so comic books were really a great interrogator of American culture for me.
My family put a lot of emphasis on homework, so there weren't too many comic books or video games for me, when I was growing up.
Comic books sort of follow with the move - if people see the movie and if they're interested in the character and want to see more of the character, they start buying the comic books. So a good movie helps the sale of the comic books and the comic books help the movie and one hand washes the other. So, I don't think there's any reason to think that comics will die out.
Kids don't even read comic books anymore. They've got more important things to do - like video games.
