comics

In the midst of the vagaries of life, they provide us a trip to the land of goodness and fairies, of imaginations and possibilities.A childhood that wasn't spent watching cartoons or reading comic strips, no wonder, seems too dull to imagine.

Socrates should have written comics.

Art, as I see it, is any human activity which doesn__ grow out of either of our species_ two basic instincts: survival and reproduction.

Because that__ what a comic is, ultimately: a collection of pages. It__ not a flatpanel or a touchscreen, even though that__ where it might eventually be displayed. It__ a page.

That has to be the most embarrassing thing that's ever happened to me in my whole life.

If so, then you're the bastard who stole my drugs Friday night. And I'll find you. Oh, yes.

Dance like you're stamping on a human face forever, love like you've been in a serious car crash that minced the front of your brain, stab like no one can arrest you, and live like there's no such thing as God.

Through lightest dark or darkest light, You dont need no bling to join the fight. We're mercs with mouths and so much more, Yippee-ki-yay, we're the Deadpool Corps!

I am going to look at the stars. They are so far away, and their light takes so long to reach us. All we ever see of stars are their old photographs.
