I can do web, comic books, macrame, art.
I grew up reading comic books. Super hero comic books, Archie comic books, horror comic books, you name it.
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.
There are still some people out there who believe comic books are nothing more than, well, comic books. But the true cognoscenti know graphic novels are - at their best - an amazing blend of art literature and the theater of the mind.
When I started in the comic book business, 'Art Of' books were strictly the provenance of the greats, like Rembrandt and Da Vinci. But times change, and so do attitudes. Now the comic is considered an art form, and I hope 'A Life in Words and Pictures' contributes a little to that art form's history.
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.
I'm a big illustration and comic book fan. In my eyes, comic books and illustration are the same kind of art forms.
I just love comic books. I've always loved comic book art, and I just think it's amazing.
I feel when a writer treats a character as 'precious,' the writer runs the risk of turning them into a comic book character. There's nothing wrong with comic book characters in comic books, but I don't write comic books.
I don't subscribe to the school of thought that as a feature film producer I shouldn't dabble in television, web content, or even comic books...
Comic books and films have a lot more in common than, say, comics and books or films and books. The two art forms, to me, seem like pretty close siblings.
Graphic novels and comic books, by and large, as you know, have cover art, and they have interior art. The interior art is never as detailed as the cover art.
When I did get into comic books, it was after a whole other career, and when I got into comic books, they didn't even know who I was.
To paint comic books as childish and illiterate is lazy. A lot of comic books are very literate - unlike most films.
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.
I still love comic books. When you have a kid, that's an excuse to keep reading all the comic books.
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.
