Superheroes are the best of us. Never mind all those powers or the crazy costumes. The heart of a superhero is meant to inspire.
I think that comic books have appealed to female readers for years.
Han Solo has always been - and I think for a lot of people, too - this iconic character who's the absolute definition of cool.
I feel like the character of Han Solo is irreverent. A very serious, precious story about Han Solo would not be that enjoyable.
'Monstress' has been hard because I want to keep writing longer, but I can't.
I'm really bothered by questions of humanity, questions of war, questions of slavery.
Growing up as Chinese-American, as someone who experienced racism, questions of 'otherness' are always at the forefront of my mind.
I didn't know how to write comics. I had to teach myself.
I love writing novels, but there is something deeply invigorating about the comic-book medium.
If you tell people what everything is before they have a chance to experience it, then I feel like it's a much different experience.
I love writing prose. I really love writing prose. It's very pleasurable for me.
Comics writing is for your artist. It's not for the general reader; it's for the artist. So I love writing scripts for artists.
I love writing comics too much.
I can't control what a reader takes from a story.
In my solo series, I feel like I've often dealt with groups of people.
I love writing romance, along with science fiction and fantasy - and my books usually meld all three to some degree.
Word of mouth is the saving grace of us all. If you love something and you think your friend will love it, just talk about it.
Because there are almost no men in 'Monstress,' we're focused completely on women. It's removed from traditional structures.
We all know that I love writing Gambit.
I don't want it to be a mission, but of course I always love to see more diversity in comics. I always love to see more women.
It's very scary to become someone new, to take that path less followed.
