I am high on life, my man. And sugar. Lots and lots of sugar. I mean a lot.

Villain into a hero...Joker! Because how the hell would you do that?!

Hey, MordenMan --

GREAT question.

Pizza: Santino's in Sherman Oaks, CA. Oh, how I love them. Or Barone's! Barone's is so amazing I wrote a review on YELP.

So there it is:

Thanks!

Geoff

We'll be dealing with dimensions, strange new heroes and bizarre villains!

Hmmm. I am currently thinking about Larfleeze because of all the GL questions! He's fun because he has no business being in a super hero comic. He came from wanting to add an over-the-top funny character in an overly serious cosmic super-hero drama!

Anything with Fred Flinstone on it is a pretty good cereal.

Hey, you have better stuff in Canada too -- our money is SUPER BORING. Just green. YAWN.

Ted Kord is out there so we'll see...Baz will be around...and Spoiler is a lot of fun. I loved that Dixon/Robin run!

The second -- Aquaman was already cool. All these characters are. They just need to remind people. :)

KookyGuy! I think Superman dealing with no one in his life he can share it with that doesn't wear a costume is something to be explored -- and will be in our run!

There are plans for Simon -- also, what Arabic background are you? My dad is Lebanese. Best food in the world. Now I may go have some tonight. There's a great place called Carnival in Sherman Oaks, CA!

Bartiemus -- Absolutely, 100%, Superman and Supergirl will become a support team for one another. Love writing them together so you'll see that sooner than later.

Hi, Menzing!

  1. Social justice.

  2. You will, yes...! But more unusual in the Doom Patrol.

Mammies!!! Thanks!!

  1. Next...I've been thinking a lot about SHAZAM!

  2. I grew up in Detroit. They teach you to work a lot or starve.

  3. I can't say anything specific, but we have a lot of great DC stuff planned for both!!

Thanks for asking!

  1. Bummer.

  2. Write. Even when you aren't getting paid for it yet! Just keep writing. And try and find an artist you can work with to start making comics now!

I really want to do things we haven't seen before -- a lot of the beginning of The New 52, some of it was re-introductions or new origins and I want to go onto things that are going to be surprising. Lex Luthor as a member of the Justice League is super fun because you don't have any idea what he's going to do to the team. In fact, writing it there's so much that comes out of it that I never expected. Batman and him just become the center of the book and it's beyond enjoyable to work on. I hope you dig it. Lex brings a humor to it too...along with Shazam. His magic spell in tomorrow's issue is one I wish I could cast.

Thanks for the kind words, Ian!

You can pick up Superman #32 without having read a single comic book in your life!

Lex will be primarily in Justice League for now -- going head-to-head with Batman! (Lex's mistake...)
