Comics Quotes
-
If you don't have that empty white space around everything in the comics, the border of the page, then it feels like you're a little claustrophobic.
Ed Brubaker
-
The most frustrating part of working in TV and film is that you have to convince someone to let you make what you want; in comics you can do whatever you want and for 1% of the budget of TV and film.
Paul Scheer
-
Comic-Con is definitely grown from just being about comics to being about all forms of media.

I had done a couple TV pilots, and a friend of mine wanted to leave comics and come work in Hollywood, and I said, "Well, you've got to understand that when you sell a TV pilot, imagine if you turned in the best issue of Batman ever, and DC was like, 'Well we love this, but we can't publish it because we have to publish this other thing by this other person." The odds are really long on getting anything made, so if you come from comics and you're still making a living in comics, that really helps because you're not desperate for someone's permission to write for a living.

I never think there's any competition between films. I root for everybody's films. I especially have a fond place in my heart for graphic novels and comics.
Bruce Willis

It's cool if people want to make movies of stuff, but I'm really interested in the comics.
Gerard Way

I wouldn't necessarily have been making books about how to make comics if I'd really felt I knew how to make comics.
Scott McCloud
-
Comics is a great medium to get a lot of stories out.
Sergio Aragones
-
The beauty with comics - and also the risk - is it is a far smaller number of voices. It's the writer and the artist and to a lesser extent the editor, who typically is the silent partner, if you've got a good enough team. Whatever you put out is the author's intent. You have to be able to defend that, of course. You have no one to hide behind, or no one to blame but yourselves, which I find refreshing because I've found in film too many times I've been blamed for other people's decisions.

I have read countless comics books while listening to hip hop, and as a young one, I wasted countless hours practicing nunchuks to Schoolly D's "Saturday Night." I would give anything for a video of that.
Axel Alonso
-
Comics who grew up surviving their childhood by being able to be the first one to make the joke about their weight or their hairy arms - like me - whatever they're insecure about, whatever they're apologizing for, that becomes their strength.
Sarah Silverman

Here's what I wish people wouldn't ask me: "Who are your influences?" That's a boring question. It's not even like, "What's it like to be a woman in comedy?" That question also happens often in interviews, but I at least understand where it's coming from. "Who are your influences" - I wonder if people ask that of male comics? Maybe they do.
