Okay, so one of the symptoms of my nerdiness is writing for Wikipedia, the ultimate "someone is wrong on the internet" site. My latest effort is a complete rewrite on John Wagner, which I think, even if I say so myself, is now a pretty unassailable article. However, there's one thing I wanted to include but can't because I can't source it. I'm pretty sure I've read somewhere John saying something along the lines of "if it's not funny, it's not a comic" - hence even his grimmest stories have humour in them. Anybody have any idea where he might have said that, or if I'm imagining it?

I haven't heard that particular quote. Wagner is the king, but of course I would disagree with that opinion if he said it. Comics, sequential art storytelling, can be used for anything.
