“I wanted to look like the most diverse writer in comics! Spy genre, sp...” — Tom King Quote

“I wanted to look like the most diverse writer in comics! Spy genre, space genre, crime genre, and then you realize that it's all actually the same thing.”

“The idea of doing a buffer, sexier Riddler - I like that. I think he's a reflection of Batman, and I think of him like a scary, evil Batman. Like Bruce Wayne without a conscience.”

“I've been the desperate writer before. I wrote a novel, and they paid me for it, and I've had those calls from my agent, and I'm like, 'Do you need me to ghost-write a vampire novel? What do you need? I'll do Transformers... tell me!'”

“I was a big 'MAD Magazine' fan when I was a kid, and I read a lot of horror comics - I illustrated as well.”

“I kind of hate over-explanation in comics.”

“I still tell a lot of jokes and do a lot of funny comics, but the stuff I like best is the personal stuff. I will still occasionally talk about my job and retail, but it evolved.”
