Superman Is Going To Live Forever. They'll Be Reading Superman In The Next Century When You And I Are Gone. I Felt, In That Respect, I Was Doing The Same Thing. I Wanted To Be Known. I Wasn't Going To Sell A Comic That Was Going To Die Quickly.

So Comics Is An American Form Of Art That Anyone Can Do With A Pencil And Paper.

My Parents Were Immigrants. And The Place For All Immigrants Was The Factories. They Were The Source Of Cheap Labor.
