Comic books were just the means for me to tell the story.
To paint comic books as childish and illiterate is lazy. A lot of comic books are very literate - unlike most films.
In every book I write, I try to name-check the most prominent influences, or the most prominent conscious influences.
But I read comic books. I read things like Richie Rich and Little Lulu.
I write reviews of science books for the Boston Globe, so I like to give science books.
People who are readers of fiction aren't particularly interested in comic books.
Comic books aren't nerdy. You'd have to be an idiot to think computers are nerdy.
We can't really make a living doing comic books, despite the fact that would be an awfully fun way to make a living.
I wasn't at all sure I could make that sort of leap into that sort of comic book reality.
