When Writing, I Model All The Heroes

... And We Talk It Out. Lately, I've Had Roy Thomas Come In, And He Sits And Makes Notes While We Discuss It. Then He Types Them Up, Which Gives Us A Written Synopsis. Originally - I Have A Little Tape Recorder - I Had Tried Taping It, But Then I Found No One On Staff Has Time To Listen To The Tape Again Later. But This Way He Makes Notes, Types It Quickly, I Get A Carbon, The Artist Gets A Carbon ... So We Don't Have To Worry That We'll Forget What We've Said.

I Think People Have Always Loved Things That Are Bigger Than Life, Things That Are Imaginative.

If Shakespeare And Michelangelo Were Alive Today, And If They Decided To Collaborate On A Comic, Shakespeare Would Write The Script And Michelangelo Would Draw It. How Could Anybody Say That This Wouldn't Be As Worthwhile An Artform As Anything On Earth?

Comic Books Sort Of Follow With The Move - If People See The Movie And If They're Interested In The Character And Want To See More Of The Character, They Start Buying The Comic Books. So A Good Movie Helps The Sale Of The Comic Books And The Comic Books Help The Movie And One Hand Washes The Other. So, I Don't Think There's Any Reason To Think That Comics Will Die Out.

Comic Books Are Just A Way To Show A Story. Then There Are The Movies, And Television And Exhibits Like This That Take The Stories And Make Them Seem So Realistic. In The Comic Book, You're Just Reading A Story - Hopefully A Good, Exciting Story That Whets Your Appetite For All Of This Stuff To Come.
