I Wanted To Portray Very, Very Dark

There Probably Aren't A Lot Of New Superheroes Around, So Whenever One Appears, It Makes A Bit Of Noise. Really, Most Of The People Who Are My Friends Write Characters They Loved As Children. I Get That, As Well, Because That's Why I Got Into Comics. But I'm Also Taking This Massive Liberation Creatively, Going Off And Doing New Stuff. The First And Foremost Reason I Do It Is Because I Think They're Fun, And I Can Do Anything I Want. I'm Not Constrained By Continuity.

Their Argument, And I Think It's A Correct One, Is That They'll Make More Money From The Trades And The Hardcovers If Nobody Messes With The Creative Team.

The Lovely Thing Is, If Marvel Had A Spider-man Movie Over At Sony Or Something, They Own The Rights To The Character, And The Editors And Producers Make Suggestions And Get Notes And Things. But You're Talking About Matthew Vaughn And Jane Goldman. They're Two Of The Best People In The World. The Notes Are Just Things Like, "this Is Absolutely Brilliant."

There's Almost A Universe As Big As The Marvel Universe With X-men. I Mean, Deadpool Is Something I Think Everybody Was Taken Surprise By, Except For The People Who Read The Comic Book.

When You Don't Have Time To Do Your Job, That's A Good Indication You're Playing The Wrong Game.
