mom feel-better good-relationship
My mom once told me that a good relationship isn't where the other person makes you feel better, but where they make *you* better.
definitely good politics race talk whether
I never like to talk about my own politics, but whether you're left, right or center, the 2008 race was definitely good drama.
audience comics connects deeply found good love ongoing series
I don't think anything connects with an audience as deeply as a long-form serialized drama, and much as I love television, I've always found a good ongoing comics series to be much more immersive.
almost books fiction good poor science superhero unfair
It's interesting - I think superheroes get much more unfair derision. There are so many good superhero books being done. Science fiction is almost more reputable, I guess, at least a step up from poor superheroes.
almost lives stories
Fantasy/science-fiction stories have been around almost as long as each genre, but every hybrid now lives in the shadow of 'Star Wars.'
yeah terror
Yeah, that's right. Flee in terror, bitches!
film fewer
Comics are essentially films with fewer frames per second.
writing thinking hands
Not a word of my writing has ever been changed by another person's hands, and I don't think many screenwriters can say that.
angel tv-shows tvs
It's TV shows like BUFFY and ANGEL that usually have an incredible cliffhanger every commercial break that amaze me.
crap
I just make crap up more than anything else.
artist editors stories
If a good editor will let me tell my story with the right artist, I'm happy.
talking names two
I'm the one who started spreading that particular factoid, about Bendis, Azz and me all being bald Brian's from Cleveland, just to get my name mentioned in the same sentence as two much-better writers, and it's worked like a goddamn charm. Next up, I'm going to grow a big, disgusting beard, just so people will start talking about Alan Moore and me in the same breath.
worst-case-scenario fantasy horror
I've always thought of fantasy as a genre of best-case scenarios, and horror as a genre of worst-case scenarios.
nice book fans
Fans of my books have just been supremely nice.
