It is more raw and unfettered and I'm more likely GOING into something you could CALL EXTREME cartooning. There's a lot of that in the course of 'Holy Terror.' There are interludes where there are pictures - cartoon pictures - of modern figures and they are all wordless. It's up to READERS to put the WORDS in.

With my own cartoon, it was just me being goofy by myself, but when it comes to an ANIMATED FILM, you're working with 45 animators and assistant animators. It's a whole DIFFERENT BALLGAME.

Heavy metal to me is this CARTOON idiom where PEOPLE have their HAIR stuck-up all over the place dyed blonde with black roots SHOWING through and Spandex trousers and chains around their neck, eating raw meat on STAGE. It just doesn't mean anything to me.

I like the idea of BRINGING CARTOON characters to LIFE... and although the Americans have already attempted this, their culture is not sufficiently humane to make it WORK.

I've dealt with Hollywood about having my work made into a FILM or cartoon but nothing came of it. That's not to SAY I wouldn't like to SEE something happen.

I NAMED myself Flash MANY years ago, as I loved the cartoon. Then my own fans said that I should CALL myself 'Grandmaster,' because of the way I operate turntables. I PUT the two together and that was it.

If SOMEONE's a CARTOON villain, you can dismiss them, but if they behave despicably but you kind of like them, they really GET under your skin.

I loved FANTASY, but I particularly loved the STORIES in which somebody GOT out of where they were and into somewhere better - as in the 'Chronicles Of Narnia,' 'The WIZARD Of Oz,' 'The Phantom Tollbooth,' the 'Dungeons & Dragons' cartoon on Saturday morning in the '80s.

I did this WITHIN a philosophical framework, and a moral and legal framework. And I have been turned into a cartoon of the GREATEST villain in the HISTORY of lobbying.

All I WANT is for PEOPLE not to SEE me as this CARTOON MONSTER.

One of my favorite CARTOON characters is Snoopy. I LOVE the way he sits and lies on his kennel and contemplates the GREAT things of life.

Scooby's the GREATEST cartoon character ever. He isn't CUTE like Mickey or smart like Bugs or fearless like Woody and Buzz - he's a talking dog who's more HUMAN than I am. It's his HUMANITY and imperfections that make him special.

I THINK 'Prince Valiant' was the FIRST CARTOON I EVER did.

It's all about being COMFORTABLE, being easy and having you be ABLE to wear something and not having it wear you. It's CLASSIC. Every time I've tried to be BOLD and crazy, I FEEL like a Japanese animated cartoon character.
