David Lagercrantz

A lot of sponsors over the years have left us. They've all come back. But they chose to leave us for a while because of stories we have done about them or their products or their friend's products or whatever.

Morley Safer

Fred Saberhagen

I think comics are really part of The Zeitgeist. They reflect back to us the issues that we're concerned about in the time they are written.

G. Willow Wilson

I do write about race a lot, but I don't think writers - of any shade or background or whatever - have to write about certain subjects.

Colson Whitehead
