Good Swiping Is An Art In Itself.

I Think A Play Can Do Almost Anything, Because It's Also A Static Form, Much More So Than In A Movie. In A Movie You Can Move The Scenery, You Can Do Anything Any Way. A Cartoon, Happens In A Limited Amount Of Space And A Limited Amount Of Time, And You Can Only Get So Many Words Before The Reader's Gonna Get Impatient. All Of These Forms That I Enjoy Are In A Sense A Slight Of Hand, Where You Have To Suggest Much More Than You Really Show. You Have To, In A Sense, Seduce The Reader And Trick The Reader Or The Audience Into Going With You.

I'm Well Beyond Dyslexic: I Have No Sense Of Direction; I Never Know Where I Am.

I'm Not Electronically Geared At All; I'm Really A 19th Century Cartoonist. I Have A 15-year-old Daughter, And What She's Attracted To Is Of Course Ipod And This Pod And That, I Mean Stuff I Don't Even Begin To Know - I Never Learned How To Type For Christ's Sake! I Can't Get In Her Head And Find Out What She Would Do If She Had The Kind Of Talent I Had, I Don't Have A Clue. Every Generation Comes Up With Its Own Quirkiness And Its Own Culture Which Gets Its Inspiration From What's In The Air At That Time.

I Don't Know How Comic Artists Feed Their Families, If They Do. But It's A Fascinating Form And So I Think That After A Long Period Of Nothing Happening And Work, Nothing Very Impressive, We Are Into Another Golden Age Of Comics. Unfortunately, It's Not A Golden Age For The Artists Themselves Economically. I Don't Know How They Get Along.

There's No Rap Against Comics That Isn't True. They Were Sexist, They Were Racist, You Name It - And They Kind Of Gloried In That.
