A comic, you have to be looking down at him. My favorite rooms, the audience is above the stage, stadium-style.
Look, I had a passion for comic books growing up.
In their heyday, comics were a dominant force in popular culture, but that's over.
I was a big 'MAD Magazine' fan when I was a kid, and I read a lot of horror comics - I illustrated as well.
I'm not the guy with the enormous comedy nose or the big feet or the bad posture or the whatever; a physical comic has certain things.
What made me want to go into doing comics was I was working as a laborer with my father, a gardener.
If you're a comic, you don't have a rehearsal room, you rehearse on stage. My main concern is remembering everything.
I'm wildly different than Maria Bamford or Sarah Silverman, and might be more similar to some male comics.
When I was a kid, I always thought that I'd be a comic book artist. It took a long time to start thinking that I could be a musician.
I want to play the Green Lantern. I'd love to do a comic book hero. Go to the gym, get all buff, puff up. That would be a lot of fun.
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.
Because making movies is such an expensive endeavor, other media such as books and comics have long been a more feasible way to experiment with truly new ideas.
It may be true that the only reason the comic book industry now exists is for this purpose, to create characters for movies, board games and other types of merchandise.
I watched so many comic book movies where the actors weren't as built as the characters in the book. It made me mad because they didn't look right.
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.
As a boy, I devoured comics but never saw what we now describe as a picture book.
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.
