The Only Time I Go On The Set Is When I Have A Cameo To Do In The Picture. I Go To The Set And I Do My Little Cameo And I Meet All The People. It's A Great Way To Spend The Day. And Then I Go Back To My Own World.

I Used To Be Embarrassed Because I Was Just A Comic-book Writer While Other People Were Building Bridges Or Going On To Medical Careers. And Then I Began To Realize: Entertainment Is One Of The Most Important Things In People's Lives. Without It They Might Go Off The Deep End. I Feel That If You're Able To Entertain People, You're Doing A Good Thing.

Once, I'd Written A Western Story, And One Of The Panels Was Just A Hand Holding A Six-shooter, And There Was A Puff Of Smoke Coming Out Of The Barrel, And A Straight Horizontal Line, Indicating The Trajectory Of The Bullet. So That Page Was Sent Back To Me From The Code Office, Saying That The Particular Panel Was Too Violent. I Asked Them What They Meant, And They Told Me--i Swear--"the Puff Of Smoke Is Too Big." Well, Of Course. So I Had The Artist Make The Smoke A Little Smaller, And The Youth Of America Was Saved.
