Can you tell us about your vision for Absolute Superman? How does this series stand apart from previous Superman stories?
When starting from scratch, so to speak, was it ever overwhelming figuring out what you wanted to use from the vast Superman tapestry?
What themes are you most excited to explore with Superman in this series? Are there new facets of his personality or struggles you’re aiming to highlight?
The concept of social class is a strong one in the first issue, why was that so important to this character?
To be honest, the social class element made me immediately think of Batman, do you think your Superman would get along with Batman?
What challenges have you faced in writing Superman (though not for the first time), a character often seen as the ultimate symbol of hope and morality?
What would Absolute Superman think of main universe Superman, or vice versa?
The first issue seems to suggest there’s some tweaks to Superman’s abilities, or maybe how he charges up. Was there a trial and error process of figuring out this Superman’s power set?
Since you’ve been developing this series more or less alongside the Absolute Batman and Wonder Woman, did the development of those series influence your approach or take at all?
Is there a panel or page Rafa blew you away?
What’s your thoughts on the new Superman logo?
