Occupy’ is nothing but a pack of louts, thieves, and rapists, an unruly mob, fed by Woodstock-era nostalgia and putrid false righteousness. These clowns can do nothing but harm America. Frank Miller Read Quote
I don’t do a comic book thinking there is a movie. I just want it to be as good a comic book as it can be. Frank Miller Read Quote
Cartoonists’ dirty secret is that we tend to come up with stories that involve things that are really fun to draw. Frank Miller Read Quote
You do Batman right, and he’s going to be popular. He’s a great character. I was once asked by somebody if writing ‘Batman’ was like holding a Ming vase or something. And I said, ‘No, it’s like holding a big-ass diamond that you can’t break. You can throw him against the ceiling, against the floor, anywhere, and you just can’t break Batman.’ Frank Miller Read Quote
As a cartoonist, I’m a caricaturist. First you find out what somebody really looks like, and then you find out what they ‘really’ look like. Frank Miller Read Quote
I grew up on the crime stuff. Spillane, Chandler, Jim Thompson, and noir movies like Fuller, Orson Welles, Fritz Lang. When I first showed up in New York to write comics back in the late 1970s, I came with a bunch of crime stories but everybody just wanted men in tights. Frank Miller Read Quote
Where I would fault President Bush the most was that, in the wake of 9/11, he motivated our military, but he didn’t call the nation into a state of war. And he didn’t explain that this would take though a communal effort against common foe. Frank Miller Read Quote
I will throw all my best efforts into it, my thoughts and political observations, but ultimately I want to create a narrative that keeps you turning the pages and leaves you with a sense that this thing has a reason for being there. Frank Miller Read Quote
Comic-book pages are vertical, and movie screens are relentlessly horizontal. But it’s all the same form. We use different tools, but we get the job done. I’m completely in love with CGI. It’s great for conveying a cartoonist’s sense of reality. Frank Miller Read Quote
I think most things I read on the Internet and in newspapers are propaganda. Everyone from the ‘New York Times’ to Rupert Murdoch has a point of view and is putting forth their own propaganda. They’re stuck with the facts as they are, but the way they interpret and frame them is wildly different. Frank Miller Read Quote
