I Wanted To Portray Very,

Even When I Was A Little Boy, When I Was Seven, I Absolutely Loved Wonder Woman, And I Saw Her As One Of The Superhero Greats With Superman And Batman, And I Think It's Because She Was Her Own Thing. She Always Felt Like The Real Deal The Same Way That Superman And Batman Did. Whereas The She-hulks And Spider-women And All That Kind Of Thing Felt Like A Continuation Of A Concept.

The Success [of The X-men], I Think, Is For Two Reasons. The First Is That, Creatively, The Book Was Close To Perfect ... But The Other Reason Is That It Was A Book About Being Different In A Culture Where, For The First Time In The West, Being Different Wasn't Just Accepted, But Was Also Fashionable. I Don't Think It's A Coincidence That Gay Rights, Black Rights, The Empowerment Of Women And Political Correctness All Happened Over Those Twenty Years And A Book About Outsiders Trying To Be Accepted Was Almost The Poster-boy For This Era In American Culture.

I Just Love The Fact That All My Pals Are Basically Looked After. You Know, We Have These Amazing Deals, These Guys Split 50 Percent. We Have Ownership 50 Percent, All The Bonuses 50 Percent, And Everybody's Going To Be Alright. So Going Forward Into The Future, Every One Of These Millarworld Projects, As We Call Them, 50 Percent Partners On Everything. So It's Just A Really Happy Environment To Be Working In.

What I Do With Everything Is Take Things Out Of Real Life. You Encounter All Sorts Of Stories. It's A Lot Of Your Friends And Family, Sometimes There's Quite Sad Episodes In Their Life And Everything. So Just Little Things I've Picked Up Along The Years Always Find A Way Into All Of My Stories.

I Just Trust The People Involved. Marvel And Dc For The Last 16 Years - Is That 90 Percent Of The Time It's Incredible Top Talent. Like, This Is What Makes It Different From The Pre-2000 Superhero Movies. I Would Say, Except Tim Burton And Richard Donner, It Was Generally, Comic Book Movies Were Done By Guys Who Weren't That Into The Material And People Who Didn't Really Respect The Stuff. But As Everything, Whether It's Wolverine, X-men, Avengers, Batman, All These Things, It's Just Been Done By Top-tier People. I Have Total Confidence That They'll Continue That Tradition Of Being Great.
