crew great settling
One of the great things about the 'Arrow' crew is that no one is settling for what they did yesterday. They're always thinking about what they can do tomorrow.
One of things we say on 'Arrow' is, 'The only constant is evolution.'
One of the things I do well - I think, anyway - is combining different tones.
advanced albert edison einstein steve thomas
Imagine if Steve Jobs or Thomas Edison or Albert Einstein were all alive 10, 20, 30 years before we know them to be alive; it would have advanced the world that much sooner.
cross dollar episodes fan huge love million six
I'm a huge fan of 'The Six Million Dollar Man' and I love the episodes where they would cross over with 'The Bionic Woman.'
dark fact happen network
I happen to like dark, and I like the fact that 'Arrow' is a pretty dark show, particularly for a network show.
announce ourselves personally projects ready several titles
We have several projects in the pipeline, but one of the rules we set for ourselves is we don't want to solicit or announce any projects that aren't ready for publication. I'm personally really tired of reading about titles that never come out.
The one thing that's always very safe to say with 'Arrow' is never make assumptions.
artist budget pay terms
With comics, there's no budget. There's a budget in terms of you have to pay an artist and a colorist and all that, but you can do anything you want to do.
absolutely certain ipad paper perfectly pilot printed script
We're not militant, but there are certain things that are absolutely secret. There was a pilot printed on red paper, and I read everything on my iPad and have a scanner on my desk for these purposes. I scanned in the script, and red paper script scans in perfectly fine.
believer correlate directly fans huge product shows though writers
We're huge fans of 'Game of Thrones' for example, 'Orphan Black.' And even though those shows don't necessarily correlate directly with 'Arrow,' I'm a very big believer that writers are the product of their inspirations.
against batman character discover existence fighting happens identity imagine life morning wakes war whose
Try to imagine a character like Batman whose whole life has been about fighting crime, whose whole existence and identity is his war against criminals, and he wakes up one morning to discover there are no criminals. What happens to him?
hopefully life manner
The nice thing about 'Arrow' is we never say never on the show. Hopefully the show will have a nice long life, and all manner of things can potentially happen.
That's one of the perks of my job, is getting to see what the Internet does.
