I Was In The Beginning When [comic

I Like Spider-man Because He's Become The Most Famous. He's The One Who's Most Like Me - Nothing Ever Turns Out 100 Percent Ok; He's Got A Lot Of Problems, And He Does Things Wrong, And I Can Relate To That.

... And We Talk It Out. Lately, I've Had Roy Thomas Come In, And He Sits And Makes Notes While We Discuss It. Then He Types Them Up, Which Gives Us A Written Synopsis. Originally - I Have A Little Tape Recorder - I Had Tried Taping It, But Then I Found No One On Staff Has Time To Listen To The Tape Again Later. But This Way He Makes Notes, Types It Quickly, I Get A Carbon, The Artist Gets A Carbon ... So We Don't Have To Worry That We'll Forget What We've Said.

I Have A Reputation For Doing Superheroes, But I Like All Kinds Of Writing. In Fact, Hardly Anybody Knows This, But I've Probably Written As Many Humor Stories As Superhero Stories.

I Love All The Voiceovers I Do. I Can't Remember Them All, But I Seem To Do Them All Of The Time. And There's Nothing Easier Because You Just Stand And Read The Script, And You Don't Have To Act The Way Actors Do. You Don't Have To Be Made Up And Put Costumes On.

Comic Books To Me Are Fairy Tales For Grown-ups.
