- Ends
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm happy with the way '100 Bullets' ends terribly.
- Morals
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Characters with questionable morals are sexy.
- Fight
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
If you read any sort of, like, military general autobiographies or biographies, most of them never wanted to fight, you know? It's necessary. War is necessary.
- Depicted
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's depicted in comics as, like, this gung-ho, 'Let's die in battle, in glory' idea, because that's just the genre we're in. But that's not what war really is.
- Like
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Like, why is Batman so relevant? It's because he gets reinvented constantly. There are a lot of stories you can tell with that character.
- Exactly The Same
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think a lot of superheroes seem to have the same value system; they just have a different costume. They're all doing exactly the same thing.
- Really
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Characters work really well when they're reflective of the times that they're operating in.
- Future
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Civil war, now, 100 years in the future - the things that motivate human beings, they don't change emotionally.
- Follow
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
'100 Bullets' is such a post-modern noir; there are certain rules you gotta follow.
- Person
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Hollywood, they love everything, but they move like molasses. They'll option anything - the worst idea in the world will get optioned just because they want to keep the other person from getting that idea.
- Mistakes
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It is our mistakes that make us interesting, right?
- Dancing
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Believe it or not, but 'White Heat' and 'Little Caesar' keep dancing around in my brainpan while I'm writing 'Moonshine.'
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
What's the trick to writing a good bad guy? Well, for me, it's always been the idea that you pit yourself against authority, you know? I think that's what it takes - and then you can write villainous characters.
- Desire
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
If there's nothing interesting about a character, people leave because there's no desire to see what happens.
- Great Things
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Denny O'Neil did some great things with Joker - I thought Greg Rucka used him really well in 'Gotham Central.'
- Character
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Superman is pretty much the way he was - you know - what he's always been. A lot of the Marvel characters are products of their time. I think Batman, as a character, has been able to adapt; he's pretty malleable.
- Modern
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
One of the problems in modern comics is that they keep referencing themselves endlessly.
- Dialogue
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
People have told me that the dialogue in '100 Bullets' is very realistic. I don't agree.
- Myself
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When I write, I'm talking to myself constantly to make sure that it sounds OK; it has kind of a nice rhythm and a nice jump to it.
- Man
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Man, I think mistakes - that's what makes us distinct human beings. Those imperfections.
- Good
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Good people struggle against what's imperfect about them. The people that we call 'bad' people embrace that kind of stuff, embrace the darker side.
- Done
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
We finished 'Spaceman,' and before we were even done with that, we had already been talking about what we were going to do next.
- Language
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I really like language - and slang in particular, and just the shorthand we use when we communicate with people.
- Met
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I have never met a feminist who didn't have a father.
- Perfection
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
From a storytelling perspective, perfection is death.
- Everything
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I like everything that is wrong about Chicago.
- Like
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I like alleys. They are the backdoor to everything.
- Bad People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
These are the kinds of stories I'm really interested in telling: bad stories about bad people, I'm comfortable with.
- Reality
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Basically, I think that Gotham is all of our urban nightmares and fears made into reality. Instead of hearing footsteps from behind you while you walk down the streets, turning around and finding nobody there, there is somebody there.
- Every Day
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The metro section of the newspaper every day is full of stuff I can use. It's the greatest inspiration for me because it's full of endings. That's where the ends of stories show up.
- Psycho
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Nobody's angry all the time, unless you're a psycho.
- Horrible
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Wonder Woman is not horrible. Her villains should be.
- Experiencing
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When something is well-crafted, you know it, and the enjoyment comes from experiencing it.
- Myself
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I have to challenge myself, and I have to challenge the reader. We should be weaving and working on new stories and not the same story over and over.
- Nov 07, 2020
Writing 'The Spirit' is really fun.
- Mother
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My mother would make a good Wonder Woman.
- Character
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
'100 Bullets' is a novel on its own. 'Brother Lono,' other than the main character, has nothing to do with '100 Bullets.'
- Dark
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
For me, a story always goes out of a mistake. Somebody makes a mistake, and that becomes the story. Probably that explains why my series are kind of dark: because there's a problem to begin with.
- Holder
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm a Cubs season ticket holder.
- Know
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Noir deals with the disenfranchised: people who can't catch a break under normal circumstances. In noir books, you root for these people, but you know they are going to fail. That's what makes them so compellingly human. I can relate to that kind of stuff.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
This thing is such a ripple, the way lives are affected by gentrification. On one hand, yes, you're cleaning up this area, you're making it more livable for people. But you're not saying anything about the people that live there.
- Cult
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I like being a cult figure.
- City
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When I was writing about Gotham in 'Broken City,' I was writing about Chicago. I just substituted the names.
- Paris
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Paris is wild; it's decadent... it's so many things.
- Heads
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Painted talking heads is just boring.
- Happy
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm usually done working by Happy Hour.
- Graphic
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm kind of a graphic novel ambassador.
- Done
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Why do something that's already been done?
- Power
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think portraying the Joker's point of view would do a disservice to that character. As soon as you get inside his head he would lose so much power.
