world force make-sense
The world doesn't make sense until you force it to.
fun character thinking
I don't own an ounce of the work I've ever done on 'Batman,' and I still work on 'Batman.' I love the character, I think it's a lot of fun, and it's kind of fun to be in that ballpark every once in a while, where you're seeing a different crowd.
thinking drawing woods
Comics are so full of amazing work. And I can't look at a drawing of a woman without thinking of, for instance, Wallace Wood and his amazing way of capturing beauty.
being-real trying vote
But I'm not trying to convince anybody how to vote or how to live. Nobody's ever successfully accused me of being realistic.
practice cinema towns
Hollywood is a town; it's not a medium. And cinema is a medium you can practice anywhere.
turns i-realized ifs
I realized that I was about to turn 30, and Batman was permanently 29. And I was going to be damned if I was older than Batman.
flying next metropolis
Alfred: Hmf. I suppose you'll take up flying next, like that fellow in Metropolis.
too-much dies
I'll make it. I won't die. I've got too much I have to do to let myself die.
hero dirty blood
My Sin City heroes are knights in dirty, blood-caked armor. They bring justice to a world that gives them no medals, no praise, no reward. That world, that city, often kills them for their brave service.
als needs hell
I can tell you squat about Islamism. But I know a lot about Al Quaeda, and they need to burn in hell.
thinking cities america
When you think of what Americans accomplished, building these amazing cities and all the good it's done in the world, it's kind of disheartening to hear so much hatred of America, not just from abroad, but internally.
girl real kids
The comics I read as a kid were all about guys in tights. But here was a guy who wore a fedora. He fought crime like they did in Marvel and DC, but he did it in the real world. I had just turned 12 when I met the Spirit and it was a strange coincidence. At the same time I discovered girls I fell out of love with guys in tights.
liars gun weapons
A gun is a liar's weapon
girl men littles
An old man dies, a little girl lives. Fair trade.
