I taught myself how to draw, and I soon found out it was what I really wanted to do. I didn’t think I was going to create any great masterpieces like Rembrandt or Gauguin. I thought comics was a common form of art, and strictly American in my estimation, because America was the home of the common man – and show me the common man that can’t do a comic. So comics is an American form of art that anyone can do with a pencil and paper.
