book consistent
"The Cursed Wheel," which Declan [Shalvey] is starting here, is the one constant. It's a story in the backups that will go through the whole year and be the one consistent narrative. It anchors the entire [book].
dark ridiculous term
If I know what something's about, and I can always have that touchstone, I feel like I can reach for really ridiculous humor and also go really dark in terms of the things I'm afraid of.
Having that North Star for every story [about Batman] is really key for me. It allows me to go farther and farther off the reservation.
Jordie Bellaire knows how to tell a story with color.
heart artist villain
"The Cursed Wheel" is the heart of the whole year on All-Star. All-Star is a series that's largely compartmentalized so that every artist can reinvent a villain and have Batman go up against the villain in a way that's pretty singular.
owl gotham bed
Beware The Court of Owls, that watches all the time, ruling Gotham from a shadowed perch, behind granite and lime. They watch you at your hearth, they watch you in your bed speak not a whispered word of them or they'll send the Talon for your head.
fighting sometimes curse
I had to fight for wingdings. Batman needs to curse sometimes!
night expectations wicked
I read THE WICKED + THE DIVINE last night, and no matter how high your expectations are for it, its better.
believe thinking people
That's what everyone thinks--they think being a cop is about punishing people for doing wrong. But that's not true. You know it isn't. It's about believing in people, believing in the good. In the will of people to do what's right despite their own instincts.
men lasts last-man-standing
I always, always got to be the last man standing.
hero personality psychology
I spoke to Geoff Johns a lot. We went back and forth, and found a way to bring up the best qualities in his personality and psychology and also fill a niche in Gotham that we've never seen. It became about is there a way to really plant this hero in Gotham and say this is someone you haven't seen before - both in terms of who they are as a person and who they are as a hero.
night long together
Does it matter how long they were together that night? To lovers, an hour can last a century. But even for lovers, every hour ends.
mets said lost
- If I tell you, will you let met go? - You bet, partner. [...] - You promised! - Nope. I said "you bet." You did ... and you lost.

Sometimes, all it takes is a few words to change your life.
