Anyone familiar with my work knows I'm no sappy sentimentalist.

I'm essentially a humorist and, I think, a pretty good one. I've known all along that 'My Friend Dahmer' is the one book I'll be most known for, and in a way, that's a drag, as it's nothing like the rest of the work I've done or will do moving forward. But the way I figure, it's better to have a best-known work than not to have one at all.

He'll run in Jeremy's name. He knows the horse and he knows his way around there. He's familiar with the surroundings. It's a win-win situation for everyone.

When I started doing 'The City' in 1990, most papers ran it the width of the page, 10 inches or so. It was great! I had lots of room to draw and write. It was the golden age of weekly comix. Today, most run my strip half that size. I just try to make it legible. It's very frustrating.

As anyone familiar with my scholarship knows, I am not a huge fan of inherent powers in most contexts.

He who knows how will always work for he who knows why.
