However, a person with a superior education can easily outsmart someone with a genius IQ who’s lacking knowledge.
— Mimi Jean Pamfiloff Smart Tass

There are a lot of writers who just want to do their own thing and avoid the rest of the Marvel Universe. But for me that was one of the things I loved about Marvel: that shared universe.

— Ann Nocenti
