Absolute Batman #1 out Oct. 9 - Second Printing October 30

The new suit seems to invoke a bat even more, would you say Absolute Batman is far more bat than man?

Scott, in a recent AMA on reddit you said you were a consultant on the Absolute line, how did that first meeting go and how long ago was it?

You also mentioned you and Nick work in your home office every few weeks, can you explain how that has made the process different, and maybe better?

Not to dig into spoilers, but you said Batman is the “small chaos in the system,” is this a book we can connect to our own world given politics, globalization, and ongoing wars?

Nick, did you have a mood board or listen to any particular music when designing the characters?

Nick, positively loved your work on East of West, would you say you’re bringing any kind of futuristic or sci-fi edge to Absolute Batman?

Does it feel important as far as in what order you introduce rogues in this new take on Batman?

Scott, If your run with Greg Capullo was a post 9/11 world version of Batman, what might be the marker of this Batman historically?

What would Greg Capullo Batman think of Nick Dragotta Batman?

If Absolute Batman was a song what would it be and why?
