Comics Seldom Move Me The Way I

I Can Look At My Early Work And See What A Pained Struggle It Was To Draw What I Was Drawing. I Was Trying So Hard To Get This Specific Look That Was In My Head, And Always Falling Short.

I Enjoy The Opportunity To Use Swear Symbols. The Reader Reads Into Them Something Worse Than What You Normally Would Have. They Work As This Outburst Of Incoherent Anger. I've Found Ways To Write Around Swearing That Are Much More Effective, Rather Than Going For What Someone Really Would Say.

I Think There Was A Point That I Realized I Could Do What I Wanted To Do In Terms Of The Drawing. I Used To Run Around A Lot Of Things. I Would Shy Away From Certain Things That I Realized Would Be Horrible For Me To Draw, And Just Wouldn't Be Fun.

I've Felt That In The Past, Where I Just Felt Like I Had To Keep Drawing In The Same Way To Maintain This Sameness And Rhythm Throughout An Entire Book, And It Was Not Really Necessary.

I Love The Medium And I Love Individual Comics, But The Business Is Nothing I Would Be Proud Of.
