I think identity in comics is huge. 'Cause when you're a kid,
those are the people you look up to, 'cause they represent good. On the page, it's like,
"This person's good, this person's evil." I think everyone deserves
to see themselves reflected in the media they consume, and it is crazy to think that people would spend
so much money on entertainment that does not at all
reflect back their body type, their class background,
their race, their sexuality, their gender. It's wild that people have been
entertained solely by products that didn't reflect
any of those things back to them, or did in like a real homogeneous way,
for years and years
