If The Gag Is Complicated,

The Reason I Love Comics More Than Anything Else Is That The Longest Story Will Be Just A Few Pages. With A Novel, It Takes So Many Pages To Get To One Thing Happening.

Comics Is A Great Medium To Get A Lot Of Stories Out.

The Western, When I Do One, Will Be One Long, Continuous Story.

Anyone Can Write A Story Based On The Kind Of Horror Where You See A Guy In Car And Then There's The Bad Guy In The Back Seat. It's Infantile To Rely On That For Telling A Story. That's Like Going To Bed And Thinking There's A Monster Under Your Bed. It's Silly.

A Comic Book Is The Opposite Of A Cartoon. In A Cartoon, You Want To Simplify The Idea, So When They Look At It At A Glance, They Get It. Boom. Simple. Direct To The Point. But When You're Drawing Groo, Now It's A Narrative, A Story. You Want The Viewer To Get Involved In The Story. You Want Him To Feel Like He's In The Town To Follow Your Main Character. So I Love To Add Lots And Lots Of Things In It. Things That People Will Enjoy Going Back To And Say, "oh Yeah, That's How A Market Must Have Looked In This Fantasy World, With People Selling Meat Here And Dishes Here."
