Ordinary Life Is Pretty Complex Stuff.

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

As A Matter Of Fact, I Deliberately Look For The Mundane, Because I Feel These Stories Are Ignored. The Most Influential Things That Happen To Virtually All Of Us Are The Things That Happen On A Daily Basis. Not The Traumas.

I Thought I Had A Great Opportunity When I Started Doing My Comic Book In 1972. I Thought There Was So Much Territory To Work In.

I Think The People Who Would Be The Least Interested In My Work Would Be People Who Read Lots Of Comic Books.

I Don't Think I Made Any Really Big Mistakes; It's Just That I Chose Something Difficult To Do. Looking Back, I Suppose I Should Be Grateful That I Got As Far As I Got.
