Fights in real life between real people only last so long before someone gets seriously hurt.

I definitely have character arcs in mind for each character unless I kill them.

I don't presume to think I'm great at anything.
Robert Kirkman

I have things planned for every character like what they're doing down the road and coming to different realizations but I don't have how they overlap.
Robert Kirkman

I have trouble writing if I can't picture how things are going to look.
Robert Kirkman

I know there are a lot of readers that think I've got a very crappy marriage just because of the things going on with Rick and Lori but there's really nothing that's been like a mirror. I'm just making this stuff up.
Robert Kirkman

I like good stories above all else... and kickin' art really goes the final stretch to ensure a comic is good.
Robert Kirkman

I make a lot more off the trades and Image than Marvel.

I think Walking Dead is more of a stretch for me because I'm a light hearted superhero kind of guy.
Robert Kirkman

I think Walking Dead is one of the friendliest new reader type books in that every time a new trade is shipped out, a new issue is shipped out at the same time.

I want to spend my time exploring the characters we've already got here. I want to give them more time to shine before the team gets to have 400 members.
Robert Kirkman

I will say that Rick will probably die before the end of the book. I'll go ahead and put that in print. Nobody's safe. I've almost killed him three times already.
Robert Kirkman

I will work on Invincible until I am made to quit.
Robert Kirkman

I write the way I write.
Robert Kirkman

I'm all for selling books, but when guys are burning my house down, that's where I draw the line.
Robert Kirkman

I'm only 24 so I like to think I'm still close enough to 17 to still remember what it was like. Besides, I could just fake it and get away with it... it's not like there are any teenagers that still read comics.
Robert Kirkman

If I'm grumpy I sure do enjoy writing The Walking Dead.
Robert Kirkman

It's nice to know that what you're doing is being read and enjoyed by a good deal of people.
Robert Kirkman

It's no secret that I love the Ultimate line.
