I watched a lot of Douglas Fairbanks movies. He always played the same role with a mustache. Zorro had a mustache. The Musketeer had a mustache. Tarzan had a mustache.
That's why people love Spider-Man: he's the most grounded, relatable of superheroes.
I loved Batman as a kid.
People fantasize about being a hero and helping someone in trouble. Batman is that fantasy realized - not just for Bruce Wayne, but for the audience.
'Batman' was a colorful and wild ride.
I'm all about entertaining and keeping a reader on the edge of their seat, so to me, the social issues have to be meaningful and give the book what's really 'at stake,' but ultimately it's not about them - it's always a personal story of everyday people thrust into life-threatening situations and having to perform heroic acts.
If you spend 90 seconds with Ryan Reynolds, you know he's Deadpool. There is no one else on the planet that has any business being that character, ever.
I think it would be great to play a superhero. That will be one of my goals.
I love drawing Ryan Reynolds in his Deadpool costume. He looks amazing and is the true embodiment of the Merc with a Mouth!
Unapologetically, absent me, there is no Deadpool. Period. I am the name, the costume, the look, the origin, and the attitude. Great one-liners are the result of other writers. But there's no Deadpool at all in existence without me.
Catwoman has an awesome, iconic personality. It's a blast to write her. You get her; she's an archetype. You can just kind of put on the cat-suit.
Spider-Man's probably my favorite. You see, Batman is a billionaire and there's nothing really cool about a billionaire saving the world. But Spider-Man is Peter Parker, a conflicted character who puts on a suit and saves the world. I love that.
You will see a different Susi Ganesan in 'Kanthaswamy.'
I was a Spidey fan as a kid. I always liked the complexity and the teenaged angst that Spider-Man, Peter Parker, always had to deal with. It was kind of a deeper, darker storytelling that just good-guy-beats-bad-guy.
Who has ever stopped to think of the divinity of Lamont Cranston?
One of the things that's great is that Batman is a character that lends himself to very personal stories.
Catwoman is Batman's one true love. She's tremendously popular with women because she's both a heroine and a villainess.
It's every boy's dream to play a superhero.
I always wanted to be a superhero.
I never thought that Spider-Man would become the world wide icon that he is. I just hoped the books would sell and I'd keep my job.
I wouldn't want to be Superman. Batman would be cool. But the one I've always wanted to play is the Joker. There is a maniacal and dangerous side to me.
'The Dark Knight Rises,' it turns out, is a classic Batman epic.
The angel has confided in me that he is going to ask the Lord if he can become Spider-Man. [...] The children need heroes, he says. I think he just wants to swing from buildings in tight red jammies.
Yeah. Floyd is his batman.
Are you telling me you think Ranger's a superhero?' Think about it. We don't know where he lives. We don't know anything about him.' Superheroes are make-believe.' Oh yeah?' Lula said. 'What about God?
