Being able to draw Batman was 100% of my decision to sign with DC.
I'd really want to - just from my own experience as an artist working with a writer, I'd want to do everything I could to tailor it to the artist I was working with.
I still love Marvel to death and I had a great experience, and it was a really tough decision to leave Marvel. It was a very easy decision to come to DC; it was very difficult to leave Marvel. And I really wanted to draw Batman, and really, that was entirely the discussion when it came to coming to DC.
I'm just finding that when I'm sitting down and drawing the pages, it always takes me in a different direction than what I had in mind in my head.
I want to be careful to not stray too far away from what Batman is to me, but adding that element takes you in some directions that haven't been explored quite as much with the character.
I do believe, especially with the character of Batman, that the tone and the mood of the book is 80% of the job right there. And the more control I had over the story, the more control I had over the tone and the mood.
I found being able to change things on the fly and react to the changes in the artwork makes it stronger. And I feel like I'm not doing the job twice.
Taking Batman globally, not everything is going to have the same flavor as Gotham City; some places are going to be a lot more bright and airy. I would say that his stories are more broad, I guess I would put it that way.
I've always been a Batman fan, and I've always wanted to draw and write the sort of stories that I've always loved about Batman.
I'm really very visually attracted to Wonder Woman. She just looks great on the page.
The greatest thing a man can do for himself is to marry someone who is infinitely better than he is. And that's exactly what I did.
Multiple characters make it more difficult to showcase each character.
I naturally gravitate to darker characters. Gotham. Batman's suit. It's all dark; he's very interesting. It all comes from his builds and guts.
I think I'm enjoying writing for me. I know what's in my head, so there's a little less margin for error, but I think I really would like to write for an artist, and obviously it really depends on the artist, and the sort of story I would do.
