I like good stories above all else... and kickin' art really goes the final stretch to ensure a comic is good.

Tech Jacket shares the same tone as Invincible, but the subject matter is very different. Where Invincible is about perfection, Tech Jacket is about flaws.

Well see, I'm a good enough writer that not everybody in my books talks exactly like I do.

Fights in real life between real people only last so long before someone gets seriously hurt.

I'm only 24 so I like to think I'm still close enough to 17 to still remember what it was like. Besides, I could just fake it and get away with it... it's not like there are any teenagers that still read comics.

I will say that Rick will probably die before the end of the book. I'll go ahead and put that in print. Nobody's safe. I've almost killed him three times already.

If I'm grumpy I sure do enjoy writing The Walking Dead.

Well, don't tell Steve Niles but I just don't think horror works in comics.

I want to spend my time exploring the characters we've already got here. I want to give them more time to shine before the team gets to have 400 members.

I have trouble writing if I can't picture how things are going to look.

I have things planned for every character like what they're doing down the road and coming to different realizations but I don't have how they overlap.

I definitely have character arcs in mind for each character unless I kill them.

I think Walking Dead is more of a stretch for me because I'm a light hearted superhero kind of guy.

Last year I think I made more from my Image books than anywhere else.

It's nice to know that what you're doing is being read and enjoyed by a good deal of people.

I will work on Invincible until I am made to quit.

I like good stories above all else... and kickin' art really goes the final stretch to ensure a comic is good.

I write the way I write.

I know there are a lot of readers that think I've got a very crappy marriage just because of the things going on with Rick and Lori but there's really nothing that's been like a mirror. I'm just making this stuff up.

It's no secret that I love the Ultimate line.

I don't presume to think I'm great at anything.

The important information you need at the beginning of an issue. Like way they did the old Frank Miller Daredevil issues in the first five pages he always had to state his origins and how he got his powers.

I'm all for selling books, but when guys are burning my house down, that's where I draw the line.

I think Walking Dead is one of the friendliest new reader type books in that every time a new trade is shipped out, a new issue is shipped out at the same time.

I make a lot more off the trades and Image than Marvel.

June 2005 is the five year anniversary of the debut of Battle Pope.

Art teaches nothing, except the significance of life.

The principal rule of art is to please and to move. All the other rules were created to achieve this first one.

I grew up with art from the innocent age of ten - with art, but with no sense of identity.

One does not devote one's life in art to shock an audience.

The other great development has been in photography, but that too was influenced by Conceptual art.

My art became very public.

Riding a race bike is an art - a thing that you do because you feel something inside.

The idea is, if I can't heal from my art, then how can you heal?

But in the finished art of the song the use of words has no connection with the use of words in poetry.

One does not need buildings, money, power, or status to practice the Art of Peace. Heaven is right where you are standing, and that is the place to train.

I don't believe in art. I believe in artists.

Art cannot be modern. Art is primordially eternal.

Without art, the crudeness of reality would make the world unbearable.

We have often been attracted to the story of the other, the outcast. And he and I just loved working together, so it just kept happening, and our relationship is completely bound up with our work. We enjoy each other's art.

Where the spirit does not work with the hand, there is no art.

It is veneer, rouge, aestheticism, art museums, new theaters, etc. that make America impotent. The good things are football, kindness, and jazz bands.

At the University of Maryland, my first year I started off planning to major in art because I was interested in theatre design, stage design or television design.

Art is an expression of who you are. Parts that I play are my sculptures.

There has always been quite a strong black and white art tradition in Australia, with quite a large contingent of cartoonists, given the size of the population.

There is probably nothing wrong with art for art's sake if we take the phrase seriously, and not take it to mean the kind of poetry written in England forty years ago.

A man who exposes himself when he is intoxicated, has not the art of getting drunk.

What motivates me in art is the ugly and beautiful nature of the truth. It has to be truthful and honest, even if it is ugly and grotesque.

A great thing happening now in art is that artists are using the figure, the body, clothing, life.
