For a while I felt very alone; sort of out there in the world of comics, especially here in the States.

I have this certain vision of the way I want my comics to look; this sort of photographic realism, but with a certain abstraction that comics can give. It's kind of a fine line.

Comics as art. I do comics as comics, and my opportunity to tell stories. Simple. Basic. Let the characters have the excitement, not the package. That's where I come from.

It seemed to me you could do anything in comics. So I started doing my thing, which is mainly influenced by novelists, stand-up comedians, that sort of thing.

Comics are too big. You can't say any kind or genre of comics is better than another. You can say so subjectively. But to say it like it's objective is wrong. It's wrong morally, because it cuts out stuff that's good.
I quit comics because I got completely sick of it. I was drawing comics all the time and didn't have the time or energy to do anything else. That got to me in the end.

My grandfather was a newspaper publisher and his paper had all the comics in NYC, so some of my earliest memories are of reading the family paper and heading straight for the comics insert.

We thought everybody read comics. We didn't know we were weird. We didn't know people that collected comics were strange. It was as normal as listening to rock music on the radio.

Guns
(yoohoo, etc. oh hello. hello.)
I read a brand new paper
About a man who had a thousand guns
Lived in the southern states
Ran away from everyone
Felt it wasnt safe
Even in the southern states
I read a brand new paper
Walking down my own street
The man with a thousand guns
Has taken to his feet
He felt it wasnt safe
Even in the southern states
He thought that he might die
But was he frightened by
Anyone with a gun?
Well, every strangers danger
Everybody has one
But alone and hungry
He couldnt eat his.....
Guns
I watched my television
Sitting on the floor
The window man was watching
Me and a million more
He read me the news
Someones getting abused
He thought that we might die
He wasnt frightened why
Everyone has a bomb
Its a passing danger
Or so he said
Everybody has one
Care to see or just wait
(thats just great)

All the technology of our production was still pre-War. They were sort of '38, '39 and the War had been stable and so we were infinitely behind whatever had been going on in the United States for instance.
