People Are Attempting To Bring A Superficial Reality To Superheroes Which Is Rather Stupid. They Work Best As The Flamboyant Fantasies They Are. I Mean, These Are Characters That Are Broad And Big. I Don't Need To See Sweat Patches Under Superman's Arms. I Want To See Him Fly.

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.

This Should Be Agony. I Should Be A Mass Of Aching Muscle - Broken, Spent, Unable To Move. And, Were I An Older Man, I Surely Would ... ... But I'm A Man Of Thirty - Of Twenty Again. The Rain On My Chest Is A Baptism - I'm Born Again.

The Larger-than-life Thing Is Definitely What I'm After. I've Always Drawn Dark Stories. Occasionally, I'll Try A Perfect Hero, But It's A Real Stretch For Me. I Like 'em Warts And All, And Obsessive And Weird.

It's Not Movies And It's Not "fine Art." The Beauty Of A Comic Is That It's Clear, Direct Communication. My Work Is Getting Simpler And More Cartoony Because I'm Much More Interested In Communication Now Than In Any Illustrative Value.

I Guess In My Own Egotistical Way I Like To Create My Own Library Of Batman Books That Doesn't Run Contrary To A Single Thing That Has Been Published Before, But It Also Stands On Its Own.
