I've spent my whole life working in a medium that was regarded with contempt largely because of historical reasons.

Superheroes are mostly aimed at young teen-age males concerned with their manhood. The medium will have to address itself more to content. . . . I see 22 year olds draw massive Schwarzenegger types, outfitted with metal studs, pressing a mostly naked woman to their breastplates. And I think "Poor girl, that's got to be cold."

I want to point out to adults that there is a world of good material available to you now in comic form - in this medium - and learn to give it your support because the more you support it, the better the material will be as it comes out.

Half our life is spent trying to find something to do with the time we have rushed through life trying to save

There is small risk a general will be regarded with contempt by those he leads, if, whatever he may have to preach, he shows himself best able to perform.

I believe that — in spite of this courageous, not comic but tragic book by Will Eisner — the story is hardly over. Yet it is a story very much worth telling, for one must fight the Big Lie and the hatred it spawns.
