Let's be friends based on mutual hate.

These shoes are Mr Silly's shoes, Scott.

Culture is evolving, and I'm along for the ride.

Seeing people cosplaying my characters is always a blast.

I.. Uh...What are you having?... Did you make some of those up

Somehow the pantsless gay man is not bringing the romance, Scott.

I just don't think I can write someone drastically younger than me.

I grew up in London, Ontario, and moved to Toronto when I was 22 or 23.

When you're alone, you look at yourself more, it is kind of inevitable.

Each new book that comes out kind of pulls up the old ones a little bit.

I need some kind of... like... last minute, poorly-set-up deus ex machina!!

I always like to write where I'm at in real life into whatever I'm working on.

Oh, hey, maybe I should have mentioned that my friends are retarded douchebags.

'Monkey Island 2' was a huge game for me. It kind of taught me all about comedy.

Okay, this might sound vague, but do you know this one girl with hair like this?

Bryan Lee O'Malley has been alive since he was born and will lives until he dies.

Out here where the world begins and ends, it’s like nothing ever stops happening.

Doubt yourself all you want, but you have to make choices in life and live with them.

Scott, if your life had a face, I would punch it. I would punch your life in the face.

I'm 25 and just trying to understand women. Obviously, that is a process that never ends.

In my teens and university and stuff, video games became more realistic, or they started to.

When I was a kid, I desperately wanted more background information on especially cartoonists.

I'm always exploring other people: trying to figure out myself, trying to figure out everyone.

After a long period of not drawing, you have to, like, relearn how to draw. It's not very fun.

I've certainly played games that provoked a real emotional response or serious thought processes.

I don't want to spend my entire life drawing talking heads. It seems like a waste of everyone's time.

'Seconds' is very much about reaching out for the next thing after you've figured out the first thing.

I didn't expect 'Scott Pilgrim' to be successful. I just made this weird comic to entertain my friends.

I've had so many little ideas I've written down here and there. Some ideas I've got reams of notes for.

This song is for the guy who keeps yelling from the balcony, and it's called 'We hate you, please die.'

I do get the sense sometimes that if I draw things too nice, maybe I won't be indie-rock enough anymore.

I used to be really influenced by Brian Bendis, back in his indie days. But I guess I try to tone that down.

I don't really picture anyone when I'm drawing. They just become their own completed person with googly eyes.

Kim: Hey... There's a guy over there with a samurai sword. Scott: Really? Like a katana or a wakizashi or both?

I'm sometimes sort of in touch with the readership, and they seem to have perceptive questions, for the most part.

Writing music is sort of my hobby, but it's been falling off more and more. Doing comic books takes up my entire life.

I really like the look of old '70s and '80s Japanese comics, so I think that style is something I will continue to draw.

The places I've been, or passed through, or seen at a distance, have had as much an impact on my life as the people I've known.

I don't really have a metaphor for how I write, but it kinda feels like chipping away at a big dark object that I can't really see.

When you do your first book, you're just like, "This is my work." And it's just this whole other world that you throw yourself into.

My readership seems to be the sensitive people, for the most part. Then there are the occasional fans who are like, "Ah, video games!"

I have a lot on my mind and not a lot to do so it's going to come out, all of it, and then, then, it may begin to make a sort of sense

Kim: "What, a coffee? Hollie, I have some bad news. I hate you, okay?" Hollie: "You hate everyone, Kim." Kim: "You're one of everyone.

The first Nintendo game I ever got was 'Clash at Demonhead.' I got into anime and manga thanks to that Canadian classic, 'Sailor Moon.'

Each new book that comes out kind of pulls up the old ones a little bit. The new releases are always going to bolster the old releases.

Scott: I don't think I'm ready to be a grown-up. Kim: I don't think you are either, buddy. But hey, you'll get it. It just takes practice.

Listen to this, okay? Just listen. You hear that? That's market bacon hitting the pan. Today a child is born unto us, and his name will be bacon.

I've always been open to the idea of an adaptation that does its own thing, that freely diverges from the original as long as it's true to the spirit.

There were times over the years when I wanted to take a break from 'Scott Pilgrim,' or even just stop doing 'Scott Pilgrim,' when I was feeling down or whatever.

I don't tend to cast roles in my head because I spend so much time with these characters and the drawings that they're complete in themselves, you know what I mean?
