Marvel Comic Book Sayings

#1. And one of our vocabulary words was nonconformist. I just dug that word. I heard the explanation, the definition, and I felt like I had just learned about a new hero in a kick-ass Marvel comic book.

Nick Offerman

#2. The latest spin on the Marvel comic-book hero delivers the popcorn goods.

Peter Travers

#3. My enlightened racial consciousness demands that I reject the so-called greatness of William Faulkner and William Shakespeare. I don't have time for any of that Hamlet jive -- but Marvel superheroes are super cool.

Ta-Nehisi Coates

#4. One of the marks of a great poet is that he creates his own family of words and teaches them to live together in harmony and to help one another.

Gerald Brenan

#5. I'm a huge Marvel Comics fan, and I'm a huge 'Wolverine' fan, I like the 'X-Men' comic book.

Jason David Frank

#6. Once I found out that I was playing 'Deathlok,' I unearthed my old comic book collection. I was going home for Christmas, and I have a collection of thousands of comics. I was surprised to see that 90% of them were Marvel. So, I wanted to go through my collection and start there.

J. August Richards

#7. My favorite comic book growing up was 'Thor.' It was one of my three, favorite comic books. Obviously, Marvel is such a huge name, but for me, to book a role in a Marvel movie, and for it to be 'Thor.' When my manager told me I booked 'Thor,' I literally didn't know what to say.

Joseph Gatt

#8. Spider-Man initially made me want to come to New York and work for Marvel; I wanted to be a comic book artist.

Chris Columbus

#9. If you have to dwell on anything, think of noble pure thoughts.

Lailah Gifty Akita

#10. The Daredevil comic book was the first comic book Marvel had ever put out that was an adult R-rated book, so I started with that. When I was creating the series, I just started with that tone, and that edge, and it just kept going.

Melissa Rosenberg

#11. Life is now in session. Are you present?

John C. Maxwell

#12. As a comic book artist, once you become a master, you end up a slave. In fine art you're always free ... since I couldn't make it at Marvel, I made my life a carnival.

Mark Kostabi

#13. I'm a huge comic book collector. When I was a kid, I had both Marvel and DC. I was my own librarian. I made card files. I had origin stories of all the characters, and cross-referenced when they appeared in other comic books. I was full on.

James Mangold

#14. I was a huge comic book fan. It's weird because the era of 'Marvel' I was into turns out to be very important in the long run, but it's not the one that anybody romanticizes.

John Darnielle

#15. I'm not a huge comic book fan, but I'm a closet fan of certain Marvel heroes, two of those being Iron Man, and the other being Guardians of the Galaxy, which I'm looking forward to.

Kevin Feige

#16. Thank God there aren't 1.6 billion Trumps.

Edward Leigh

#17. His kiss sent sensation from the tip of my tongue all the way to my knees, and I let my weight fall against him as I met his probing tongue with my own. I wanted to be closer, to absorb all of him, to experience the shimmery feeling flowing through my veins for as long as possible.

Mia Sheridan

#18. I don't believe that one has to tear down the cinema screen in order to renew cinema. But new input and new energy are lacking. They are flowing above all into the television technologies. We must, therefore, concentrate on the CD-ROM.

Peter Greenaway

#19. I love comic book movies, and Marvel Comics obviously are the best.

Maria Menounos

#20. We can expect the climate crisis industry to grow increasingly shrill, and increasingly hostile toward anyone who questions their authority.

Kenneth P. Green

#21. I'm a big comic book person. I love Captain America. I like John Henry. I'm hoping to play one of the superhero characters that's coming from Marvel.

Tom Lister Jr.

#22. There's almost a universe as big as the Marvel Universe with X-Men. I mean, Deadpool is something I think everybody was taken surprise by, except for the people who read the comic book.

Mark Millar

#23. I loved comic books. I loved Miss Marvel. I talk about Harley Quinn all the time because I think playing villains is so much more fun than playing the good guy because who wouldn't want to go to work and just be crazy?

Katee Sackhoff

#24. It feels to me like 'Shazam' will have a tone unto itself. It's a DC comic, but it's not a Justice League character, and it's not a Marvel comic. The tone and the feeling of the movie will be different from the other range of comic book movies.

Toby Emmerich

#25. Thanks to the comic book publishers. Batman and Captain Marvel were responsible for my learning to read at least a year before I showed up at school. They got me interested in writing. Started my first novel at about eight. The title: 'The Canals of Mars.'

Jack McDevitt

#26. The Marvel cinematic universe and the Marvel animation universe are things that are very true, in terms of the DNA of what it is. But if, at the end of the day, all we're doing is telling stories that have appeared in the comic books already, then we're not really challenging anybody.

Jeph Loeb

#27. As a fan, I want all of the Marvel TV projects to be successful. I am a comic book fan.

Marc Guggenheim

#28. One of the weapons Marvel used in its climb to comic-book dominance was a willingness to invent new characters at a dizzying speed. There are so many Marvel universes, indeed, that some superheroes do not even exist in one another's worlds, preventing gridlock.

Roger Ebert

#29. Man becomes his most creative during war.

Clint Eastwood

#30. For me, one of the really cool things about this is that throughout these movies, there have been - and I enjoyed it this way - hints at what S.H.I.E.L.D. is and how they function within this Marvel movie universe which, as you know, is deeply based in the comic books.
