Kelly Sue DeConnick Zitate: 28 Sprüche mit Übersetzung

My son is such a lover, such a caretaker and so funny. He's seven, and he genuinely cracks me up. And my daughter is a fearless powerhouse. They fill me with wonder and admiration.

I like my heroes to be imperfect; I like them to be striving. I identify with that kind of aspiration to do better.

I do make some conscious efforts to write female friendships, intergenerational female friendships. I make a conscious effort to include things that I see as important real parts of my life that are not reflected as much as I think they should be in popular culture. We very seldom have the opportunity to see women compete and remain friends.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

I think I'm very strong at dialogue, I think I'm very strong in characterization. I think sometimes I use dialogue and character work to cover weaknesses in my plotting.

If there was any creature in American culture more derided than the young girl... I know people will argue with me about that, but everything girls are into gets ridiculed. I have a lot of compassion in my heart for girls in their teens and twenties who are going through this particular passage, because I get it. It makes sense!

Kelly Sue DeConnick

Girls have always read comics. There's nothing intrinsically masculine about telling stories with pictures.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

I tend to choose collaborators who are more courageous than I am. I think it's good for me.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

I think women are vital to the future of the superhero comics and the entire industry - as creators, as editors, as consumers, as retailers.

One of the things I enjoyed when working in manga was when I couldn't tell where anything was going because there weren't narrative tropes and structures I was used to. After doing it for seven years, I got to the point where I did see structures. I did start to learn, but at first I didn't know where it was going. It was very exciting for me.

I don't think working in superheroes is slumming it. I'm proud of this form. I like this. There's nothing inherently masculine about power fantasies. There's nothing inherently masculine about superhero comics. There's nothing inherently masculine about mythology. About science fiction.

Being a woman in a male-dominated industry sort of sucks, but it doesn't suck any more than being a woman in the world. My advice? Be terrifying.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

There's nothing less funny than trying to force funny.

I'm not particularly good at page layouts. I make an effort to stay out of the way of the artist. What I'll try to express instead is, 'What we're going for here on this page is the idea of the containment of these women's bodies. So I want them framed as though they're bursting out of the panel borders.'

Kelly Sue DeConnick

I hate when I get asked, 'What's it like to be a woman in comics?'

Kelly Sue DeConnick

If you can remove a female character from your plot and replace her with a sexy lamp and your story still works, you're a hack.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

The notion that somehow women are wildly different infuriates me.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

With Marvel, I obviously don't own the characters, so there are levels of approval to go through. But I'm very seldom told no, and never without reason. Maybe I've just been lucky; I don't know, but I don't think it's as frustrating as people generally imagine. I act as though I own it all while I'm writing, I think. I hope, anyway.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

I am a nerd among nerds.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

Everything that feminism stands for is everything American, white, red and blue democratic. It is all the same stuff. So, I am boggled that I should have to give up this term that encapsulates what I want for my children, for my world, culture, brothers and sister because someone else thinks it means I don't shave my armpits.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

I kind of resent the suggestion that there would be something inherent about superheroes that wouldn't be of interest to women. That makes me nuts. I'm a 5-foot tall woman with a quick temper who always looks like a child, so power fantasies are not strange to me.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

You'll go mad trying to figure out what people want. I don't bother. I write the stories I want to read.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

Gray space is fertile ground for fiction. When I can see both sides of an argument and feel strongly in both directions, then there's a story there, then I can write real characters that I care about and believe in and champion on both sides.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

I think 'The Avengers' is a Black Widow movie. She saves the day. And if you take her out, the plot does not function.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

If you want to, if you are a crazy person, you could go from idea to the stands in about four months. It does not cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to make a comic the way it does to make a television show or a movie.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

I'm really just trying... to write what feels true to me. I don't think about a lofty responsibility. I think I'd be paralyzed by that. Like any of my male colleagues, I'm writing the stories that interest me in a way that feels true to me.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

I need to go where I'm not comfortable. I think that's the artist's job.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

Comics are not theatre - there's a very important difference in that the reader controls the page. You can linger on a page of comics as long as you want. You can read and go forward and then move back; you can reread, in one sitting or at your leisure. You can take as much time as you want to take in that story.
