I'm pretty aggressive, and maybe obnoxious, about trying to get work.

Plays have been made of my comics.

It's extremely seldom that anybody wants me to change what I've written about them. Generally I portray them in a good light, if they're friends.

I've probably had my day in the sun. I think I've influenced a lot of comic book writers.

I'm doing research for a large comic book on the Beat Generation guys - Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac and those guys.

I'd been familiar with comics, and I'd collected 'em when I was a kid, but after I got into junior high school, there wasn't much I was interested in.

I try and write the way things happen. I don't try and fulfill people's wishes.

I'm a guy that likes to sit in one place.

I write scripts in storyboard fashion using stick figures, and thought balloons and word balloons and captions. Then I'll write descriptions of what scenes should look like and turn it over to the artist.

Life is about women, gigs, an’ bein’ creative.
