“I love comics for comics' sake. Always have. Always will.” — Tom King Quote

“I love comics for comics' sake. Always have. Always will.”

“I started out as a novelist, and I think novels have gotten a little stiff, a little repetitive, and the energy in comics was much more appealing.”

“I don't believe in writing for goals, or else I'd write essays.”

“The male domination and chauvinism of the comics form is either being wittily lampooned in 'Watchmen' or handily perpetuated, depending on whom you ask.”

“For a while I felt very alone; sort of out there in the world of comics, especially here in the States.”

“Most of my work - including everything from my own comics to the covers I've drawn for 'The New Yorker' - is the result of taking some personal experience or observation and then fictionalizing it to a degree.”
