Sometimes I Pretend Not To Look At

I Guess My Inspiration Is This - I Like To Pretend That Every Story That Ever Happened To 'batman' Was Real And Is Part Of This One Guy's Life.

I Think The Only Way You Can Get Something Out Is To Invest Some Real Emotion Into It, Which Means You're Already Writing About What's Going To Happen To You, Whether You Know It Or Not. That's Why I'm Always Surprised When People Talk About Writer's Block. Because To Me, It Can't Be Stopped.

I Prefer Working Out Of Strict Continuity, Because No Normal Human Being Can Have A Firm Grip On The Constantly Shifting Bardo-like Territory Of A Comics Universe, Where Entire Histories Can Be Erased By A Strong Enough Super-sneeze.

My Art School Rejection Letter Arrived As A Cold Manila Fist That Closed Around My Fragile Hopes ... The Fear Was Practically Edible. Nothing Would Happen Unless I Get Out And Make It Happen. Then, As If Handling Me The Keys To The Jet Pack, My Dad Bought Me A Typewriter And A Taped Message To The Inside Of Its Case: "son - The World Is Waiting To Hear From You".

My Greatest Accomplishment So Far Is To Keep Selling Enough That I Never Want For The Labor That Sustains My Presbyterian Soul.
