I mean, of course, I love sci-fi and stuff like that, but I'm not, like, a comic book crazy guy.
Imagine my surprise when, after a lifetime of teaching me to keep personal things to myself, Mom insisted my drawings were the start of a comic strip for millions of people to enjoy.
I didn't read comic books; that's not something that was really available to me as a child. We watched more cartoons and movies.
When I was a boy, I always saw myself as a hero in comic books and in movies. I grew up believing this dream.
I'd been a fanatic of movies since I was a wee lad, so I got into the films before I got into the comics.
I see myself as a comic but the acting helps sell tickets for gigs.
People used to think I was just a shouty comic but I was doing stuff about Sartre.
I am a 'made' cartoonist, but I was born a comic.
A comic can be aesthetically beautiful. I think they captured it beautifully and accurately.
I continue to be disappointed that people don't try and diversify the kind of work they are doing in comics.
I really never had any ambitions to be a standup comic. I was talked into it by guys that I used to work out with.
I never go perform somewhere alone. I've done that since day one. I've always taken other comics with me.
Comics are so full of amazing work. And I can't look at a drawing of a woman without thinking of, for instance, Wallace Wood and his amazing way of capturing beauty.
Comics are my first love, and I hate seeing an art form that I love suffer.
There's so many good comic actors that you just take the best of and try and run with it yourself. Try and bring a little bit of yourself to it, too.
For me, who loves to draw and who loves to write and cannot choose between one or the other, the comic is the best form.
Alternative cartoonists have to rely on comic book stores to get their stuff in the hands of readers.
Comics could use more creators with something worthwhile to say.
Bob Saget is the dirtiest comic who's ever lived. Nobody touches him.
And what's interesting about him as a comic character is that the custard pie hardly ever ends up on his face.
All through my comics career, I was always trying to reinvent the form.
