Batman has been acknowledged as a legend in my lifetime.

The trouble with being a ghostwriter or artist is that you must remain rather anonymously without credit. If one wants the credit, one has to cease being a ghost and become a leader or innovator.

Much is written about the Batman because he is publicly exposed in print. Very little is known personally about his creator, because I haven't given out that many interviews.

It is difficult to separate, at times, the myth from the truth.

If Bill Finger created Batman, where is Bill Finger's byline on my strip? It is conspicuous by its absence.

I intend to explode the myths about myself and get down to the real truth about the legend that is Batman.

If you ever want to get the facts straight about me or the Batman, please write to the original source, myself, for the truth, instead of second guessing.

I was involved with the Batman. There are two sides to every story. Now you've heard my side.

This sounds like my autobiography, but I thought this would be a good time to sound off about myself, as I think that I have been silent too long about my views and opinions.

I didn't have the time to literally write and draw the strip at the same time.

In the Golden Age of Batman, I penciled, inked, and lettered my strip by myself.

Loneliness was an inseparable part of being human.

Truth is narrow, but grace is wide.

Many things happen between the cup and the upper lip.

I want him [Saddam Hussein]. I want - I want justice. There is an old poster seen out west. As I recall, it said, Wanted Dead or Alive.

God's love is an exercise of his goodness toward sinners who merit only condemnation.

I believe that if you think about what style means, you won't become a fashion victim.

When love is not at its height, it always creates a mess.

A just cause should need no interpretation yet flounders when confronted by self- interest and corruption.

Maybe it was true, and being a girl could be about interest rates and skinny jeans, riding bikes and wearing pink. Not about any one thing, but everything.

Many are those who pity others while being blind to their own misfortunes.
