It's been 25 years now, and truthfully, time sometimes blurs the memory.

The New Look of Batman is more illustrative and realistic.

What I read is so distorted that I cannot believe that the person they are talking about is myself.

Although Bill Finger literally typed the scripts in the early days, he wrote the scripts from ideas that we mutually collaborated on. Many of the unique concepts and story twists also came from my own fertile imagination.

Batman has been acknowledged as a legend in my lifetime.

I am planning a one-man art show of original Batman oil paintings that I will show in New York City.

Much is written about the Batman because he is publicly exposed in print. Very little is known personally about his creator, because I haven't given out that many interviews.

The trouble with being a ghostwriter or artist is that you must remain rather anonymously without credit. If one wants the credit, one has to cease being a ghost and become a leader or innovator.

If Bill Finger created Batman, where is Bill Finger's byline on my strip? It is conspicuous by its absence.

From reading a previous answer, you know that I consider all those aspects to be part of American cultural myth and thus they figure into good American poetry, whether the poet is aware of what he is doing or not.

It took some time to gather the research and develop it into the storyline, and to finally finish an origin myth poem that I had been working on for twenty years.

I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge. That myth is more potent than history. That dreams are more powerful than facts. That hope always triumphs over experience. That laughter is the only cure for grief. And I believe that love is stronger than death.
