John Rozum quotes

“Animation is about timing; movement or lack of movement, often in time with music. These are the tools which make it's visual gags work, or not. Again, comics don't have those tools, so you have to find some sort of parallel to create something that suggests a close approximation of the source material, but without the ability to truly replicate it.”

“No one is putting comic book writers on the cover of Entertainment Weekly or Vanity Fair. No one cares whether we have cellulite. There are no paparazzi hiding in the bushes of our front yards. Even the wealthiest among us make very little compared to any c-list star. Even the biggest stars in the comics are completely unknown to anyone who doesn't read them.”

“Unlike someone like Tom Hanks, or U2, the comics industry is not a thriving industry and we all need to keep and expand our audience. The best way to do that is to keep the fans we have happy and to keep them excited about our next projects so they'll keep following our work. The best way to do that is to continually engage them in conversation. I don't mean to sound flippant by any means. We're not being nice to our fans because we have to.”
