You see people who are disenfranchised elsewhere coming to Comic Con and making lifetime friends. I love seeing the outcasts of society all bonding together.
The thing is, the Superman comics have been around a long time, and so have the movies. They've done a lot of Superman movies, as they have with Batman.
Now, as a comic, if you're vaguely amusing you can go straight into TV, then you play the O2 and then everyone's sick of you.
I really can't pinpoint the one moment when I said I want to be a comic.
When you're onstage with Chris Rock, anything can happen. He is one of the greatest comic geniuses we've ever seen.
There is no bigger crime, in the English comic novel, than thinking you are right.
By and large, I think that comics work seriously hard. Many have other jobs as well, plus you never really switch off, so you're always working.
Some comics really thrive on being disrespectful, especially toward women, and it's somehow understood as edgy, but I'm the opposite. I've never liked curse words for that reason.
A good book praises itself.
I went through and underlined all the funny lines in his book, and by the time I was done, I had underlined his whole book. That would be great if he wrote a humor book, rather than a book on investing.
Every work cancels the dark. Every work is a hymn from the other side of memory to a memory that is spellbound. Beauty is death's gift to vulgar life so that it can live in beauty.

My father never put a book into my hands and never forbade a book. Instead, he let me roam and graze, making my own more or less appropriate selections. I read gory tales of historic heroism that nine-teenth century parents were suitable for children...
I’m an open book—an open book I’m still writing and editing. My book is a romance novel, sort of like The Secret.
You must feel it from within. You must want to write the book. You must desire to write the book
There are books for when you're bored. Plenty of them. There are books for when you're calm. The best kind, in my opinion. There are also books for when you're sad. And there are books for when you're happy. There are books for when you're thirsty fo...
Comic-Con has been an amazing experience. It's overwhelming, I have to admit, because of the lines and the crowds.
I think you can do anything with comics that you could do in just about any art form.
For a long time, I was under the impression that 'Terry and the Pirates' was the best comic strip in the United States.
If you look at Marvel Comics, there are very few Marvel characters I would like to write.
Having a comic in the White House will assure stability in foreign relations. The world will continue to respond to foreign initiatives by saying, 'You must be joking.'
